Summary

I'm an Architectural Associate based in Singapore. With over 3 years of experience in the industry, I have a passion for design and a keen eye for detail. My expertise lies in residential projects, specifically in landed houses and interior design.

I have worked on a variety of projects such as residential houses, Commercial projects and Interior Design projects. My experience working with both developers and end-user clients has given me a well-rounded understanding of the industry and the ability to cater to different needs and preferences.

One of the things I love most about my job is the opportunity to bring my clients' visions to life. I believe in collaborating closely with my clients to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and practical.

Apart from my work, I am constantly seeking to expand my knowledge and skills. I am always on the lookout for new design trends and techniques to incorporate into my projects.
