Hi! I'm Carly

Design isn’t just my profession - it’s my passion, my purpose, and my playground. From the moment I could hold a pencil, I’ve been sketching blueprints of my dream home, continually refining ideas and reimagining the structure. Architecture has always been my driving force, something I've loved for as long as I can remember. This lifelong journey of creativity inspired me to found draft.

I graduated from MiraCosta College in Oceanside, CA, with an AA degree in Architectural Technology, which laid the foundation for my career. Since earning my degree in 2018, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse architecture firms across residential, healthcare, commercial, industrial, and landscape sectors. Each project deepened my understanding of design and strengthened my commitment to creating spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful.

Today, draft. focuses exclusively on residential and commercial architectural design. My goal is simple - to make the design process clear, collaborative, and enjoyable while creating thoughtful spaces that truly reflect the people who inhabit them. Every project is a chance to combine creativity and technical precision, turning ideas into places that feel distinctly yours.

Take a look around my site to see the kind of work I love to create and the care I bring to each project. I’d be honored to help bring your vision to life and design something you’ll be proud to call your own.
