Her works focus on the architecture that grows between the  physicallity of built form and the immeasurable phenomenology of space. This way, architecture can give rise to the sustainable growth of the built environment while taking into consideration the human experience and perception.

The opportunity to leave a lasting impact is a privilege, and architects are gifted with this in every building they design. My prime focus falls under umbrella of construction project management and its prime role in Architectural practices. As an architect, I feel that practicality of any built project and it's design coordination  is the major source of success of any project being executed on ground.
