Museum of Gender Arts Emmet Park Winter 2018 10 week duration Museum of Gender Arts at Savannah GA. “Being gay is like glitter. It never goes away.� -Lady Gaga The concept of this project is based around the idea of equality versus equity and its place within nature. By visiting this museum, visitors will have a better understanding of their role in society and nature. In order to understand out place we must understand what is above us and below is and realize that we are not less than or greater than each other but play a role in our experiences.

Project Description

I wanted to create of space for the LGBT Center of Savannah. Through my volunteering time and analysis, I learned that they frequent the nearby bars and the LGBT Center is too small to accomodate all the members.

Community Center Georgia Railroad Museum Spring 2019 10 week duration Recreational Center in Savannah GA.

Project Description

The goal of the project is to create a sustainable refuge area for low-income families that also serves as a recreational center including a gymnasium, food storage, classrooms etc. The site includes a bridge that once served as an American Railway. I wanted to use the bridge as a means for emergency vehicles as well as a community food garden that can withstand a hurricane. Another issue with the site was combating flooding that occurs in Savannah.

Service Blueprinting Zunzi’s Spring 2019 10 week duration Restaurant in Savannah GA.

“Space design can directly impact human factors such as employee productivity, happiness, and consumer behavior. How can service designers strengthen our understanding of the relationships between physical and digital space in order to create impactful experiences?” -Alice Chiang

Project Description

Over the course of a quarter I was able to work with a business to determine a means of streamlining their business. I relate this to architecture because it’s the best way to understand and research people and their effect on the world around them. I was able to interview employees in every area of the business and have hands on experience being a customer. The purpose of service design is to make products and services more efficient in a comprehensive and attractive way. I’m interested in combining service design in architecture in my work and plan to do so in the future.

_Portrait of a Traveler.


Portraiture Side Project Winter 2020 20 week duration Museum of Gender Arts at Savannah GA. “It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.” — Paul Caponigro

Project Description

I chose to include portraits into my portfolio because they speak to my analysis of people and their nature. People shape our buildings and our faces are how we define and recognize one another. My portraits are done in pastels and charcoal on flesh toned paper. The chiaroscuro within each piece emphasizes sunlight in how it relates to site and place. I draw many portraits in my spare time and each one comes with new challenges because we’re different people who walk different paths but sharing common feelings of love, sadness, anger, and joy.

A Child’s Sanctuary Downtown Savannah Fall 2019 10 week duration A day camp for children in Savannah GA. “As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still, because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know.” ~ Carl Jung

Project Description

This project supports the psychological mindset of children by reflecting on their scale and impact in the biosphere through the withdrawal of urban spaces. I started this project by analyzing the influence both science and religion have on children. Religion is very prominent in downtown Savannah with a lack of scientific facilities. I wanted to give children a space to unravel their developing minds and go through the world as they please in a free environment. The goal of the assignment was to create a building with over 5 floors but I also wanted to create a large outdoor space so I worked within that challenge to create my three spaces that are connected by a path.
