Personal Biography

Ambitious architect with an eye toward the world! At Dhaka University of Engineering & Technology, where I'm presently pursuing my degree in architecture. I'm motivated to create environments that inspire and unite people, in addition to being useful. My goal is to go overseas and get experience while learning about other architectural styles and broadening my vocabulary in design. I'm actively looking for chances to work with businesses and architects throughout the world. Let's talk about the future of architecture together!
