Andy Nguyen

As an experienced and passionate architect, I am eager to explore novel possibilities in architecture design administration as a competent and zealous architect. I am self-assured in my aptitude to direct and animated teams of architects and designers to success due to my record of achieving high-grade designs and managing intricate projects from start to finish. I am conversant in present-day enterprise customs and technical progressions, and I make it a priority to keep updated on new trends. Above all, I am encouraged by a fondness for generating innovative, ecological designs that go beyond for customers and eventual users.

Nothing is impossible if you look at it from the right angle.

Education

2014 - 2016
University of Lincoln

Master of Architecture

I have developed my professional abilities and a thorough awareness of the value of the living environment in design thanks to studio activities. I now realize that creating a building that is aesthetically beautiful alone is insufficient; the human experience must also be taken into account. I want to create designs that improve the lives of their residents by putting their comfort and well-being first. This insight has had a significant impact on how I design, inspiring me to create environments that strike a balance between aesthetics, utility, and human needs.

I also expanded my knowledge of architecture by touring many internationally known structures. Participating in the design phase of the city future project helped me develop both my design talents and my ability to communicate complicated information to a variety of audiences.
