“ ARCHITECTURE IS A VISUAL ART, AND THE BUILDINGS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES “

-JuliaMorganRoad

I am pleased to be applying for the Junior Architect position at your firm. I hope that my qualification and my qualities would make me a perfect fit for the role. I believe that working under you would be the opportunity of a lifetime for me to learn new things, further develop my expertise and grow both personally and professionally.

I am a B.Arch. graduate from Manipal School of Architecture and Planning. During my academics I’ve worked on multiple individual and group projects. These assignments allowed me to become a great team player and taught me how to function well in fast-paced and deadline driven environment.

I did my professional training with Gayathri and Namith Architects, Bangalore. From where I learnt to apply design on a larger and realistic scale. I worked on residential, commercial and hospitality projects.

Apart from my academics, I was part of AIESEC (a global platform for young people to develop their leadership potential) MAHE and was also a campus ambassador at Viral fission. I also have certifications in programming languages like C++ and python. Since I did my minors in Interior Design, I have a brief idea in that field as well.

I hereby assure that all the information given by me is true to the best of my knowledge and I hope that my portfolio will reflect me and my qualities.

Resume.
