4th Year Architecture Student
I’m a fourth-year undergraduate student at School of Architecture, KLE Tech, Hubballi. Passionate about designing functional, context sensitive spaces, i like to explore the psychology of spatial experiences while intergrating local insights. I grow in collaborative environments, embracing leadership with a flexible, processdriven approach.
I’m seeking an internship that allows me to collaborate on meaningful projects, challenge my perspectives and and grow as a designer who balances imagination with intention, with clarity and creativity.
