Ms. Saheb is the founding architect of the firm Saheb Architecture in New York city. She has over 20 years of experience altering buildings in large urban cities. She offers design solutions to townhouse and building owners to raise the value of their property through redevelopment and/or passive rental income. She is an expert in Conversions of residential buildings. 

Ms. Saheb was born in India, and grew up in the large city of Mumbai. She graduated from University of Mumbai and was licensed as an architect at the age of 24. She then set up her own architectural practice in Mumbai. Soon after, she took the bold decision to move to America, and arrived in New York as a tourist at 25. She started her life from the bottom of the society to build it up to the current flourishing design-development business, with many twists and turns along the way.

Ms. Saheb volunteers at Open House New York, an initiative to promote appreciation of architecture in New York and the international business networking organization of BNI. She gives back by mentoring young professionals in the AEC industry, and hosting classes for realtors and property owners on property redevelopment. She lives on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, NY.
