Events: Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, LA Water Crisis in Flint,MI
Research Questions Why is the event relevant? Community Impacts Challenges Opportunities Outcomes Value
How
were knowledge and tools utilized? Knowledge and tool gaps

What
were the community and Industry responses for the event? Did these responses improve resilience?
Who
responded? Could the response team have been augmented to facilitate a more successful response?

Community + Resilience Literature Review Abstract The concepts of community and resilience are closely tied together. It is important to recognize the influence of social relationships between community members and how that may positively influence the recovery efforts following a hazard event. Communities that are resilient have a strong understanding of where needs are for the population and actively work to help residents overcome problems before they become serious. By involving community members into disaster and resilience planning, communities can better educate and prepare themselves in the event of an emergency.

This project was completed alongside the proceeding research done during the HKS Mentorship for the Terra Viva ‘Tactical Urbanism Now’ design competition. The objective of this work was to create a series of installations that activate public space, in a way that fosters the development of community engagement and unites diverse populations, so that the Grand Center neighborhood has effective resilience in times of socio-economic need. 7

SOUND INTEGRATION The project revolves around the music of Berry’s Johnny B. Goode, both in form and pitch. The placement of the hanging chimes and height of the planted sound sculpture correlate to the position of the notes on the staff. The chimes are tuned to the major chords of the song: Bb Major, Eb Major, and F Major; the planted sculpture creates a percussive brushing sound.

LIVE KCK URBAN DEVELOPMENT 26
FALL 2019 // MIXED USE RESIDENTIAL
This incremental approach to community life, began by analyzing the immediate needs of the Kansas City, Kansas area. Due to no grocers within a 20 min drive, no plazas in downtown area, and a need for affordable housing- these needs were approached individually to provide solutions that growth with the community. Included in this proposal is an open community space, a public market, commercial space, and affordable apartments. 27

BUILT- IN PORTABLE STORAGE
FALL 2018 // CUSTOM BUILT FABRICATION
Collaborators: Ammenah Mustafa, Carson Guy, Sasha Alm, Yuang Sun, & Alex Saenz-Lara
34
This project was a two phase design-build aimed to create a space useful for students and professors to store power tool and hand tool equipment within the University of Kansas School of Architecture and Design. Phase One focused primarily on design by creating a series of construction documents .Phase Two involved constructing the storage pod from the construction set established in Phase One. The project was created in collaboration with five other students, my primary role in developing 3D renders and construction documents, as well as construction. 35
CONCEPT Desire for portable units shifted concept to one large unit with two smaller pods. Initial concept began with 8’ x 8’ unit.

INTERIOR STORAGE
In order to meet the needs of various power tools in the design warehouse, the interior storage was specially fabricated for versatile use. Some of the features include: Pegboard wall for hanging storage Large shelves for bins/personal tool boxes Custom hanging unit for drills Electrical outlet for battery charging station
38
FABRICATION
Example of fabrication set made for the entire structure in order to properly assemble.
39
STORAGE PODS Much like the interior storage, the portable pods were designed with versatility in mind. The pods were fabricated with the use of CNC laser cutters. In order to save time on assembly, 1/4” grooves were placed along the main horizontal pieces to then slide the shelves into place.
