About Nishitha Nagaraj Jain

I am an architectural designer with a Bachelor of Architecture degree from B.M.S. College of Engineering, India and a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, expected in 2025. I have a strong background in parametric and computational design, geometric modeling, and brand management. I have worked on various residential, commercial, and hospitality projects, leading a team of designers, coordinating with clients and consultants, and producing construction drawings and presentations. I have also worked as a Lead Specialist - Store Design at Target Corporation, where I was involved in remodeling and designing Target Optical store layouts, flex order pickup projects, and departmental revamping. With a passion for design, sustainability and human centric solutions, I bring nearly nine years of experience in the field. My journey includes roles as a dedicated student, an outstanding employee at Target Corporation, and as a licensed and practicing architect executing own projects in India. My focus on the convergence of architecture and sustainability with a keen interest in innovative technologies like 3D printing and AI for high-performance building, sets me apart. Equipped with skills in hand sketching, 3D modeling, rendering and drafting softwares, I am adept at effectively communicating my design ideas.
