ARCHINFUTURE
How it started
Design With Heart
I first imagined starting an architecture firm back in high school—not because I wanted to be an architect, but simply to complete a class assignment. Still, the spark had been there long before. I remember drawing a house when I was four years old, and only later realizing it was a section cut.
I grew up listening to classical music, learning to play the flute, and performing in recitals. Photography and graphic design became second nature thanks to my dad, while my mom passed on her love for fashion and her meticulous eye for detail—something I carry with me, even in how I prepare a simple meal.
Today, architecture is a way for me to express creativity. It’s not about running a large firm. Archinfuture is more personal. It’s a way to make design accessible—whether someone needs a hand-drawn sketch, permit-ready drawings, or just someone to listen and translate an idea into a visual concept.
I also love photography. Whether capturing nature or portraits, it’s something I offer with the same care and passion.
I work full-time and also serve as an in-house architect for my church. For now, my goal with Archinfuture isn’t to become a serious design studio. It’s a space in between—a way to help people take the first step before committing to a full-scale firm. It’s also a creative outlet where I can continue to do what I love, with heart and intention.
