FINANCE FIRMS HEAT MAP Using ArcMap 10.5, CityEngine, and Photoshop, I created this 3D heat map of financial firms in Downtown Miami. Draping the heat map raster over Downtown Miami’s buildings provides greater context to stakeholders and turns a 2D map into a stunning visualization that enhances the audience’s sense of place.
3D POPULATION DENSITY MAP
This map was created for the Miami Downtown Development Authority (DDA) for the 2018 Greater Downtown Miami Demographics Report. 3D extrusions of Census Block Groups were preferred over 2D chloropleth maps to demonstrate density. This map was created using ArcMap 10.5, CityEngine, and Adobe Illustrator.

3D POPULATION DENSITY MAP
This map was created for the DDA for the 2018 Greater Downtown Miami Demographics Report. Whereas the previous 3D Population Density Map showcased neighborhood densities, this map shows daytime population throughout Miami-Dade County by Census Block Group. Using 3D extrusions highlights Downtown Miami as the center of gravity for the county. This map was created using ArcMap 10.5, CityEngine, and Adobe Illustrator.

3D EMPLOYMENT INDUSTRY MAP
This map was created for the DDA as part of a series of data visualizations revealing the geospatial distribution of jobs by employment industry (NAICS 2-digit codes). This map shows where professional services (NAICS 54) jobs are throughout Miami-Dade County by census block group. This map was created using ArcMap 10.5, CityEngine, and Adobe Illustrator.

3D DEVELOPMENT PIPELINE Using photo renderings from developers of projects in Downtown Miami, I recreated various iconic projects that will transform Downtown Miami’s Skyline in SketchUp. The buildings called out with leading lines were all recreated to scale using just SketchUp and photo renderings from press releases. This 3D interactive tool was finished in CityEngine and ArcGIS Online. The image on page 8 is a screenshot taken from an interactive 3D map for internal use at the Miami DDA, which I created in 2019 as a Planning & GIS Analyst. 3D RENDERINGS The image in the top right corner of this page is a rendering of Flagler Street in Downtown Miami, FL. Flagler Street has been the historic mainstreet of Miami with parades celebrating the end of World War II and grand festivals for the holidays during the 1940s and 1950s. From the 1980s onward, Flagler Street fell to blight. The Miami DDA created a streetscape plan to revitalize the Flagler Street corridor to combat blight. The design incorporates pavers, a rail line, and striped cement as an homage to Henry Flagler who created the FEC Railway in the 1860s which connected Miami to Jacksonville. I created the rendering using SketchUp and CityEngine as a Planning and GIS Assistant for the DDA in 2014. The image in the bottom right corner of this page is another rendering I created in 2014 for the DDA. This rendering uses Esri CityEngine and SketchUp to provide a conceptual rendering of what Biscayne Green could look like. Biscayne Green is a project the DDA has worked on for years with the goal of transforming parking medians in Biscayne Boulevard into a chain of parks. This plan still has no offiicial design as it is in the studying phase as multiple lanes would need to be eliminated.

3D RENDERINGS Page 10 shows a comparison of 3D renderings I created of the Frost Science Museum in SketchUp to real photos of how the project was delivered in Downtown Miami. I created this 3D model in SketchUp using a CAD drawing of the footprint and then extruding and carving details to scale in SketchUp by eyeballing photos of the completed project. I created this 3D model for the 3D Development Pipeline tool referenced on Page 8. This model was created in 2018 as the Miami DDA’s Planning & GIS Analyst.
FLOATING ISLANDS
Inspired by Miami’s art scene and everchanging skyline, I was curious to see how Christo and Jeanne-Cluade’s Floating Islands work would look with today’s skyline. I recreated the famous piece using ArcMap 10.5.1, CityEngine, and Adobe Photoshop.

2D RENDERINGS The images above show a before and after rendering of the Miami Riverwalk in Downtown Miami. As a Park Planner for the City of Miami, I created this rendering using Photoshop. This is a conceptual rendering to show how the space under the Brickell Bridge could be better designed to encourage more pedestrian and bike activity. The image on left, which was taken in 2016, shows what the space under the bridge still looks like today in 2019. The image on the right is the rendering I created in 2016 which imagines string lights, a mural, fake grass and fresh concrete to bring life to an area with existing public access along the waterfront but is plagued with a homeless encampment. Fake grass was preferred over real due to the lack of sun and water exposure from being directly under the bridge. Rough concrete was preferred to the existing stone tiles because the existing ground is a slip hazard when wet.

PAGE LAYOUT
Page 13 is a full page chapter introduction from my graduate school capstone project, Vision 19, which was a master plan for the US-19 corridor in Pasco County, Florida. This page introduces the goals, objectives, and policies to lead policy implementation for the Millers Bayou node of the study area. This page only has the goals as it is intended to be a page focusing on the overarching themes of the master plan’s goal, which was a sustainable and livable community. The study area averaged one pedestrian fatality a week along the US-19 corridor in 2014. I created this page layout using Adobe Illustrator, Microsoft Powerpoint, and the photo I took during a site visit. I also authored the goals. The objectives and policies can be provided upon request as a writing sample of policy work.
“MIAMI POOP MAP”
In 2015, Downtown Miami experienced an uptick in sanitation issues relating to human waste from Downtown’s homeless population. The Miami Downtown Development Authority (DDA) advocated for public restrooms to be installed for the public to use. This map was created to show policy makers the gravity of the issue. As a GIS & Planning Assistant, I created this map using ArcGIS 10.2.1 and decided to use the “poop emoji” rather than default Esri symbology to ensure stakeholders understood what each point was representing. The map not only lead to the sucessful installation of public toilets, which led to a drastic decrease in the occurance of human waste in the public realm, but also received national news attention. This map was featured in articles by CNN Money, The Washington Post, and Huffington Post.

2D THEMATIC MAPS
The map on page 15 was created for Hillsborough County as part of the Tampa Innovation District Master Plan Existing Conditions Report. This map shows parcel values per square foot for the project’s study area. I created this map using ArcMap 10.2 and Adobe Illustrator. The map on page 16 was created for the City of Baltimore as part of The Hanover Street Bridge Study. As a Senior Analyst at AECOM, I created this map using Census LODES data to show where residents of Baltimore’s Locust Point neighborhood work by zip code. This map was created using ArcMap 10.2 and Adobe Illustrator. The map on page 17 was created for the Miami Downtown Development Authority and the City of Mami Office of Resilience and Sustainability for a project with the Urban Land Institute (ULI). The ULI came to Miami to evaluate the local efforts to prepare for and mitigate against climate change and sea level rise. Fullpage infographics were preferred for demonstrating economic information to ULI. This visualization was made in ArcMap 10.5, Adobe Illustrator, and Microsoft Excel.

2D THEMATIC MAPS
18
The map on page 18 shows the “Economics Study Area” of Annapolis, MD. This map was created for AECOM in 2016 as a Senior Analyst. This project oserved economic development opportunities along West Street. i created this map using orthoimagery, ArcGIS 10.2, and Adobe Illustrator. I used a “whitewash” technique that places an opacity over the satelitte imagery with a hole cut out to draw attention to the study area.
2D THEMATIC MAPS
The map on page 19 was also part of the project from Page 16 working with the City of Baltimore for The Hanover Street Bridge Study. As a Senior Analyst at AECOM, I realized this bridge would be a major connection between the Brooklyn & Cherry Hills neighborhoods and South Baltimore and Downtown Baltimore. After a site visit, I noticed a lack of grocery stores and fresh food supplies in these neighborhoods. I created this map to call attention to the food deserts in these neighborhoods and proposed the City attract an affordable grocer upon redevelopment. I created this map using ArcGIS 10.2 and Adobe Illustrator.

BEFORE
CONTEXT MAP REDESIGN
AFTER
20
The Miami DDA’s Research Section creates in-house economic and demographic reports. The “before” is a contextual graphic of nesting circles used to demonstrate Greater Downtown Miami’s place within Florida. This graphic was used for the 2016 Greater Downtown Miami Demographics Report. The “after” is a context map redesigned from the nesting circles graphic for the 2018 Greater Downtown Miami Demographics Report. The report itself shifted from a purely downtown-focused narrative to a regional narrative and Greater Downtown Miami’s role in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL MSA (metropolitan statistical area). This small context map takes up the same amount of space on the page as the previous nesting circles. in addition to taking up the same amount of limited space available, it provides greater context as to where Greater Downtown Miami is in the scheme of Florida’s metro areas and the state as a whole. The redesigned context map was created using ArcGIS 10.5 and Adobe Illustrator.
INTERACTIVE WEB MAP
I created this interactive web map for the Miami Downtown Development Authority to track development projects in Greater Downtown Miami’s Development Pipeline. This web map is used by brokers, developers, investors, and other relevant stakeholders for market information. I created this app using Esri Story Map’s Shortlist template and made customizations with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The map can be viewed here.
