I am currently looking to turn a longtime passion and pastime (architectural drafting and design) into a career. While most of my formal experience is in the sciences and animal studies, my hobby for my most of my life has been drawing houses. It started for fun (perhaps mimicking my mother who has undertaken several home renovations over the years), but it quickly became a calming practice of establishing patterns and creating symmetrical and balanced images both in floor plans and exterior elevations. While I have taken detours in my life to get here, I want to take a chance to do something that I love for a living.
