PALOMAR STREET BRT BUS RAPID TRANSIT Chula Vista, California Kimley-Horn, 2013-2014

The Palomar Street bus rapid transit project is a four mile corridor, enhancing the broader BRT connection between Tiajuana (Mexico), and San Diego (USA). I produced multiple iterations of irrigation, signage, station design, and landscape plans for the Palomar Street corridor over the year-long cooperative I was working for Kimley-Horn in San Diego.

WAYFINDING The signage plans were created for the two station platforms which Kimley-Horn was responsible for along Palomar Street. We also developed signage details which depicted exactly how each sign would appear in its corresponding location on the platforms.

SIGN SCHEDULE

STATION DESIGN The station hardscape design proved to be one of the most challenging aspects of the design due to the dynamic nature of city driven projects. To ensure proper installation we developed many station details similar to detail “A�, on the right.

ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING STUDIO Williston, North Dakota NDSU, 2014

This environmental planning project focused on mitigating the effects fracking is having in western North Dakota on the Bakken formation. Using ArcGIS, AutoCAD, Google Earth, Illustrator, Photoshop, and SketchUp, I developed the following presentation graphics to fulfill my program of further establishing wetlands in conjunction with art and culture to increase tourism revenues.

SYNCHRONOUS WATERFOWL WETLANDS The section perspective above displays a portion of my site-specific design, depicting the dynamic nature of wetlands and the element of tourism which the reserve attracts. The ultimate goal of the program is to increase waterfowl and other wetland habitat to mitigate the loss of wildlife as a result of the oil mining.

A-AVENUE + KIMBALL PARK GREEN STREET + PARK ENTRANCE National City, California Kimley-Horn, 2014

The first portion of the project is the redevelopment of A-Avenue which includes the implementation of permeable pavers, and infiltration basins along the streetscape. The second portion of the project includes the design and detailing of an entrance plaza in Kimball Park which is adjacent the south end of A-Avenue. This entrance plaza incorporates a xeriscape demonstration garden irrigated by a cistern collecting stormwater within the park.

XERISCAPE DEMONSTRATION GARDEN

The demonstration garden at the new entrance to Kimball Park was designed with a large variety of low water shrubs and succulent species. The demonstration garden is irrigated by way of a cistern installed in the center of the park.

JLG - COLLECTED WORKS 2013 SUMMER INTERNSHIP Bismarck, North Dakota JLG Architects, 2013

During the summer of 2013 I interned with JLG Architects in their Bismarck office. Throughout the three months, I assisted with project proposals, concept development, construction documents, construction administration as well as marketing efforts. I met with clients, city officials, project stakeholders, and construction contractors throughout the development of various projects.

THE TOASTED FROG - OUTDOOR DINING Influenced by a new city policy allowing outdoor dining, I worked closely with the owner of The Toasted Frog to design a unique custom fabricated outdoor dining space. I worked closely with the client and city planners to solve issues and grant approval from the Bismarck City board for the construction of the project.

MISCELLANEOUS STUDIO DESIGNS Fargo, North Dakota NDSU, 2012, 2013

This section contains a small collection of research and travel based projects. Travelling has had a very positive impact on my life and development as a landscape architecture student. I am very passionate about travelling and the continuous learning that is associated with becoming immersed in different cultures and communities.

URBAN TRANSFORMATION MODEL The model above was designed to communicate the results of research which I conducted on the urban transformation of Barcelona, Spain as a result of the 1992 Olympics. I used hand sketches, SketchUp, AutoCAD, a laser cutter, and a wood shop to produce the model.


WESTERN EUROPE STUDY ABROAD

For a duration of three months during the Spring of 2012, I had the opportunity to travel, and study in France, Germany, Portugal and Spain. Becoming immersed in various communities, I was able to study how culture and tradition can form the landscape.

WAVES OF STORMS This is an abstract graphical representation of Puerto Rico’s erratic weather conditions. Using photos I took during my travels, the graphic depicts the unpredictable weather conditions of the tropical island.
