SAFFRON FIELDS WINERY Professional Work Yamhill, Oregon September, 2012 - February, 2013 Architectural Internship 2form Architecture Saffron Fields Winery The new tasting room located atop a mid-hill rise will connect views of the uphill vineyards and down-slope gardens. The orientation of the building plan takes cues from the old barn structure: a portion of the tasting room is canted to welcome guests as they arrive and to capture views across the landscape. Visitors are drawn to the copper-clad tasting bar that provides corner views out to the surrounding hills. As an intern at 2form, my tasks included all portions of the construction document set with an incredible amount of freedom to explore design opportunities at multiple key details throughout the building. I worked directly with the project architect and principal to achieve the level of design the clients were striving to achieve. Revit, AutoCAD, Sketchup, Hand Sketching

November, 2013 - October, 2014 Job Captain / Designer BLRB Architects Crook County School District Barnes Butte Elementary School is a 73,000 square foot building featuring 25 classrooms divided into seven learning pods. Barnes Butte currently has approximately 660 students and the school has a capacity of 700 students. The seven learning pods are arranged by grade level with each classroom in the pod facing a shared learning commons that facilitates individualized attention and enhances student-teacher relationships. Each pod is identified by a unique name taken from geographical areas of Crook County and a color scheme which is anchored by a photo that depicts the name of each pod. The structure is multi-level, and includes a 6,000-square foot gymnasium for use by both the school district and entire community. A faculty committee determined a series of guiding principles for which the schools success would be measured by. Then through the charette process the design team met with the faculty and students on multiple occasions to ultimately create a successful design which met the needs of the community and also the budget given by the district..

November, 2014 - Current Architectural Designer YBA Architects Guardian Real Estate A keystone in the Conway Masterplan, Block 290 is the main gateway to the forthcoming new high-density, mid-rise neighborhood at the northern edge of central Portland’s Northwest District. Each edge of the full city block site offers a unique condition: a bustling commercial main street, a quiet ‘green street’, a new full block public park and a pedestrian-oriented ‘festival street’. The scheme sensitively addresses each while maintaining a cohesive, concept-driven aesthetic that synthesizes traditional ideas long-established in this historic neighborhood with a modern formal and tectonic language. We have work closely and attentively with local residents, neighborhood groups and the design review commission to shepherd an exciting, innovative design through a sensitive entitlements process featuring a broad array of diverse, stakeholders.

SMALL FARMERS PROJECT Professional Work Eugene, Oregon September, 2010 - September, 2011 Deconstructible Structures, Community Outreach, Student Design Build Huerto de la Familia

DESCRIPTION |

The Small Farmers Project is a young co-op farming group of Latino families in North Eugene. Due to the fact that the farm was increasing its production (need a walk-in cooler and tractor shed) and the possibility their leased land would be taken from them; DesignBridge, a student-run design-build program, looked to find a way to help. Our project, which lasted one year, became focused around encapsulating the identity and function of a community into one simple, affordable, all- purpose, (and moveable) structure. What began as merely an architectural project became an interdependent relationship, based on trust and truly good will. What developed was a clear and concise form, which in its detail was unique. With just a wrench more than 2/3 of the building may be disassembled. In the fall, we began conceptualizing and scheming with our incredibly patient clients. During the winter we developed the design in detail, and by spring we started to build our nearly 600 sqft building. Through all kinds of real world challenges our ideas and intent persevered.

What took a year to analyze using the original data entry method now took a few weeks to aggregate, edit, and then produce graphics. The level of error was reduced to almost zero due to standardizing questions using a surveying app via droid cell phones. Duties in London included training, managing, operating, and organizing all aspects of the surveying process. A group of 8 students 2 professors and 1 professional made up the teams, which hit the streets documenting buildings. Using the new method the teams were able to document 2 times the amount of buildings with half the number of people while only needing two-thirds the amount of time.

Local and regional agriculture is vital to the stability and security of not only Oregon, but also the entire planet. Cities were formed from the security of food. Carolyn Steel,persuasively argues that the very existence of culture and society is the result of farming. At its roots farming is the very act which forever ties us to the natural world and the natural world to us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A re-awakening or co-evolutionary sensitivity to the life of the planet there has developed a series of insights, methodologies and technologies that make it possible to create a post or meta-industrial society without violating fundamental ecological integrity.â&#x20AC;?-John Todd This building looks to explore how these two worlds (urban & rural) might look when they converge as a place of food production within the city. This agricultural experiment looks into one specific model, of which the goal is to create the first completely self-sustained city in the world. I think it can be done.

Lane County rowing clubs Dexter Reservoir is home to the University of Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rowing club, and the Oregon Association of Rowers, consists of a collection of high school and individual groups brought together through their passion for rowing. A new facility is needed to accommodate the increasing number of people to the sport and also to put Lane County on the map for having a state-ofthe-art rowing facility within its borders. This site is an area used by both local wildlife and humans. The balance of the site must be maintained. The space is beautiful in its natural state and does not need much tinkering. Suppressing the building into the landscape allows for a connection between the building and the site to the north. The views are to the south, and by opening or freeing the restraints of the building as one travels from one end to the other will conclude a complete transition from nature to building and then back to nature again.

Anonymous.D, Marianne Boesky Gallery The competition called for an installation for the space between two galleries, below the recently renovated New York “Highline” rail park. The installation would then become an outdoor extension of the nearby galleries. Our entry was based upon creating a simple system from which many things could happen acoustically, visually, spatially, volumetrically and artistically. What developed was the “Pattern Box,” an otherwise nondescript mass of wooden members that without intervention would remain dormant, until awokened through use for art or performance. These pattern boxes may allow for as much as one can imagine them to be. Hand Sketching, AutoCAD, SketchUp, V-Ray, Photography, Photoshop Sheet Steel - Laser cut, Bass Wood, Museum Board William F.

LOCKE-SMITH THESIS MODEL Design Build Eugene, Oregon September, 2012 - January, 2013 Floating Form, User Interaction, Curiosity, Simplified Form A colleague and I designed and built this model to represent our thesis project separately and together. The design was driven by the idea of making a model which could open and close like drawers creating a series of dual directional section cuts along the entire model. We wanted to show the terrain as a solid entity elegantly suspended free from the substructure below through an illusion of perspective. The structural support is then revealed as one pulls a section from the mass.

STUDIO DRAFTING TABLE Design Build Veneta, Oregon October, 2008 Personal Project When I started the Architecture program at the University of Oregon I wanted to design and build my own drafting table. After sketching out the design my father and I built it using mahogany and Russian birch plywood. At the plywood edge we used a simple tongue-and-groove joint, and at the dress edges of the mahogany we used a more complicated dovetail joint. We then added fold down legs to allow for a 15 degree incline. The legs conveniently tuck underneath when one wants to lay the table flat.

YBA Architects This was an opportunity to photograph some of our work for advertising on the YBA website and future RFPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Emerge was a recently finished TI project, which our interior department developed and these images are a few of the final cuts from the project. My responsibilities were to collaborate with the Interior Project Manager and Emerge to develop a photographic narrative, which represented the design intention and image desired. I then shot the overall photography of the space with assistants to stage furniture, ending with post production / touch-up work on the images. Canon Digital SLR, Lightroom, Photoshop
