Experience
I have worked in award-winning architectural offices in Toronto, Beijing, and Los Angeles (nearly a decade of total professional experience). My independent architectural projects have won both Canadian and international competitions. I have been tutoring various subjects since 2011 (12+ years total tutoring experience). I have tutored university students (from the University of Toronto, TMU/Ryerson, Waterloo, Sheridan, etc), adult professionals who are making a career market switch or who are looking to boost their competitive skills, and high school students who were curious about preparing for enrolment in a Bachelor of Architecture program in university. Currently I am tutoring architecture-related software, including AutoCAD, Revit, Sketchup, Rhino, Vray, Enscape, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. I will teach you how to use these tools effectively and efficiently in order to streamline your projects and to create visually stunning deliverables to impress your clients or professors. I am also offering project and portfolio critique, for school projects, studio finals, university/college program applications, and job applications.

Hobbies
I've travelled extensively (20 countries, 120+ cities) and plan to continue to do so as it give me both inspiration and perspective. Some of my favourite places are Teshima (Japan), Bettmeralp (Switzerland), Los Angeles (USA), and Paestum (Italy). In my downtime I love hiking with my dog, visiting new cities and trying new food, and attempting to make a good espresso.
