ABOUT ME
I am a native of Charleston, SC, and a 4th year
undergraduate student in the Landscape Architecture Program at Clemson University. I am preparing to
graduate in May of 2017 and this document is a collection
of five projects which best reflect my work experience, design skills and technical ability at this point in my career. My interests include traveling, photography, the Spanish language and the great outdoors.

BOSQUE URBANA MARKET Barcelona Design Studio • 2016 Poblenou in Barcelona, Spain
Poblenou is an old neighborhood in Barcelona that was once the epicenter of industry for the Catalan region. After a time of decay, the Olympic Games in 1992 brought about a transformation that reshaped this old industrial district to a modern technological hub, thus creating the name Poblenou, which means “new village” in Catalan. The objective for this project is to take one photo of the Poblenou community and use this image to produce a design for a mixed-use development with a separate living space and market place. The photo in the back represents the modern technological era of Poblenou sitting atop an older industrial fabric that previously reigned. One reveals a crisp linear notion, while the other shows chaotic and artistic forms of expression. I use both of these elements as ways to distinguish the upper level apartment units from the chaotic nature of the market place on the ground floor, meanwhile using forms and structures from nature as inspiration for designing the pergola and pillars of the market.

WOODSIDE TEXTILE PARK Urban Design Studio • 2016 Greenville, SC Greenville, SC is one of the fastest growing cities in America with a vibrant street life and strong historical presence. With a rapidly growing population and a pressure to expand, established historic neighborhoods face losing their identity to homogenized commercial outlets and housing units. The chosen site for intervention is found just south of Falls Park and is located between two historic neighborhoods, West End and Sterling neighborhood. Woodside Textile Park highlights the rich history of both neighborhoods and sheds light on the essential role that these communities played in establishing the city of Greenville. Both neighborhoods were established as mill villages in which workers lived outside of the textile mills they worked. Textiles helped Greenville become what it is today and at the height of the cotton industry, the Woodside Textile Mill, located northwest of the site, was the largest factory in the world.

REVEALING HISTORY THROUGH FORM This park highlights abstract and artistic forms to represent various properties found in textiles and fabrics. The goal of this park is to uphold the deep historical roots that these communities have and to firmly establish its identity as both communities face growing pressures of development and gentrification. Features of the park include commemorative space as well as ample seating space and interactive pieces that encourage physical play. PROGRAMS: 1 Historical plaques & commemorative space 2 Dynamic seating space 3 Statue of John T. Woodside 4 Interactive landforms 5 Textile playground

BOWMAN POCKET PARK Community Design Studio • 2014 Bowman, SC
Bowman was once the dairy capital of the state and an agricultural hub of South Carolina. Over the years Bowman has declined and has lost its population and business. The site is located in the heart of Bowman along the main drive and has the potential to bring character that once existed back to the streets. The site is an abandoned lot just over two acres and contains the disheveled infrastructure of a previous business. This pocket park focuses on the agricultural history of Bowman and conveys a gradual transition from a formal garden to a pastoral meadow with an allĂŠe of trees towards the back. The design provides seasonal interest so the site can be utilized year round. The abandoned building would be re-purposed for shaded seating space or venue space. This structure would be the perfect location to house the annual farmers market that occurs on main street. This pocket park would be implemented in three phases to ensure feasibility.

PARK(ING) DAY ON CAMPUS In September of 2015 the Clemson University Student Chapter of ASLA coordinated Park(ing) Day on campus to transform an ordinary parking space near Tillman Hall into a temporary green space. The objective of the pop-up park was to bring awareness to the importance of green space and also share with students what it means to be a landscape architect. We were able to coordinate with professors as well as local businesses and the Clemson Botanical Gardens to gather material for the event. We collected wooden palettes and a variety of plant materials and designed the pop-up park on the spot.
