University of Calgary

 
This was a studio-based program, with five studios each getting larger in scope and more broad as the program went on. For example, we started with a site planning studio in the first semester and were focusing on regional scale planning by the fourth semester. This two-year program also really allowed to develop and sharpen my design skills, and learning to work with new softwares such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, Adobe Creative Suite, and Lumion. I was fortunate to take part in a five-week group study program to Zurich, Switzerland in the summer of 2022 to study what makes a successful public realm.
 
Some of the courses I took include:
 
  • Computer Modeling for Urban Design
  • Community Planning Studio
  • Site Planning Studio
  • Real Estate Development and Finance
  • Urban Infrastructure and Land Use
  • Planning & Public Engagement
  • GIS for Environmental Design
  • Regional Planning Studio

University of Lethbridge 

Bachelor of Arts in Urban and Regional Studies (with distinction), earned June 2017
Lethbridge, Alberta
 
Graduating with a GPA of 3.57, my four years of learning experience with phenomenal professors at the University of Lethbridge pushed me to broaden and challenge my worldview. I delved into what makes up the space of a city, and how societal interactions and innovations throughout human history have formed what we think of urban spaces today. I also took part in courses about political science and local governance. Participating in an applied study at Lethbridge County during my last year was an incredible opportunity to experience a professional workplace and contribute my research skills to apply in real world scenarios. 
 
Some of the courses I took include:
 
  • Geographical Data and Analysis
  • Rural and Town Planning in Alberta
  • Local Government and Politics
  • Urbanization in Developing Countries
  • Urban Social Geography
  • Geographical Information Science
  • Geographical Data and Analysis
  • Spatial Organization of Economic Activity
