Cities have and always will be my passion, but I feel strongly about responding to today’s design challenges within the urban environment. William Whyte introduced me to my more specific passion: designing within both the built and natural environments for people. I want to place the ecological and social contexts equally at the forefront of designing public spaces within the professions of landscape architecture and planning. I want to use my ability as a designer to create inviting, interactive spaces for the public without harming the environment; these spaces should be a reflection of the culture they represent, as well as a break from the stressors of city life.
My focus in my education thus far has been in sustainable design, including learning about sustainable techniques and urban design precedents. I want to work to solve regional, national, and international environmental problems with the landscape architecture and urban planning relams. I bring a wide range of skills to any office. My hand drafting, sketching, and drawing abilities allow me to convey my ideas easily through graphics. My knowledge of technical programs, such as the Adobe Creative Suite and AutoCAD, enhance my ability to convey the most detailed aspects. I continually sharpen these skills throughout my education and work experiences.

landscape urbanism integrating the inlet olympia, washington The proposed adaptable shoreline network in Olympia works to comprehensively manage the threats of sea level rise. The network strategically accommodates flooding and protects existing areas from increasingly frequent inundation. The space designs are also multifunctional. They provide amenities that enhance recreational and eco-learning opportunities throughout the Budd Inlet shoreline, while also promoting economic vitality, restoration of coastal habitat, and connections to historic areas. These adaptable designs integrate long-term coastal planning with the immediate needs of the Olympia community. The shoreline will provide recreational and educational opportunities in Downtown Olympia and along the Budd Inlet shoreline while also creating landscapes that adapt to changing conditions over time.

“Urban sites are dynamic rather than static, porous rather than contained...Defining them in design terms thus does not come down to establishing some unique identity of a limited physical place, but quite the opposite. It involves recognizing the overlay and interplay of multiple realities operating at the same time, on the same place.” - Andrea Kahn

At the neighborhood scale, the ex-Mira Lanza industrial site is part of a larger system. Ex-Mira Lanza can add to the concept of a system of post-industrial spaces adapting to a new mix of land uses; these sites focus on creating more space for the surrounding community residents and businesses. By imprinting the historic building footprints on to the site in their prior locations, the use of Mira Lanza can be adapted to civic use while the historic character is not left behind. The site circulation is changed with a new pedestrian-focused promenade running from west to east; the included runnel represents an abstracted Tevere, to pay homage to its historic importance to Mira Lanza. The site becomes a museum in itself with both formal and informal museum spaces. The building imprints are not always formally outlined, but they highlight the historic character and provide new ‘rooms’ of public space with a variety of uses. The desolate buildings on the south end are adaptively reused as an interactive children’s museum and a museum of industry.

creating space & place
a study of the UW Metrotract seattle, washington
There is a lack of green space and humanscale space along and around the University Street corridor downtown; these missing aspects create a disconnect between the corridor and the surrounding districts. As the area owned by the University of Washington is filled with more mass than void, it becomes imperative to activate what is left of the open, outdoor space, including, but not limited to, plazas, pocket parks, right-of-ways, & rooftops. Approaches to reclaiming this space for placemaking include tactical urbanism, the idea of ‘lidding’ (covering streets/buildings with pedestrian space,) and/or creating/connecting to the larger network of open/ social space.
Some opportunities to capitalize on include Freeway Park, viewpoints towards the water, a mix of building heights and open/available roofs. The University corridor and the surrounding space owned by UW has the opportunity to become more of a place; the corridor does not need to become a place and stand alone, but rather become a place that builds off of the surrounding nodes, landmarks, and neighborhoods and the corridors historical and cultural context.
This part of downtown is used mainly by consumers along 5th Ave, business people with offices in the area during working hours, and a small amount of the dinner-and-a-show crowd in the evening.

green space along wasson way cincinnati, ohio
A comprehensive open space network will strengthen the Wasson Way trail and light rail corridor. As the trail itself is a greenway, this proposal examines a variety of open space networks to create a beneficial park and open space network along Wasson Way to connect the trail with surrounding communities.

The Northeast Neighborhood project emcompasses the northeast corner of Massachusetts Avenue in Indianapolis, Indiana, including a 1920’s CocaCola Bottling Ditribution Center, the Monon Bike and Indianapolis Cultural Trails, and smaller busineses and arterial streets. The site measures ~23.76 acres, with ~50% covered with existing buildings. The Distribution Center was occupied by Indianapolis Public Schools; they decided to relocate, leading to the possible redevelopment of the superblock and the surroundings to match the other end of Massachusetts Avenue.
The site was to include live/work loft units, a mix of market rate & affordable housing, ground floor retail, public open space, a parking solution, and public and supporting services of your choice. The solution should also address the recent changes in the neighborhood demographics, urban design guidelines for village areas, the potential in the existing buildings, and multimodal transportation and the Monon Trail connection. Google Sketch Up and hand drawing were both used.

Urban Renewal Projects Open space is an important part in living an urban/city lifestyle. Today, there are not enough open spaces, or parks, throughout Cincinnati. The quality of life needs within 0.5 mile to improve among city dwellers; incorporating open space within a half-mile of all urban renewal projects and residential areas will help improve the residents of Recreation Areas quality of life. GIS will be used to find the residential areas and urban geographic information systems work samples
renewal projects in Cincinnati that are not within 0.5 mile of a park or open space. Only two urban renewal projects are not within 0.5 miles of a public open space: Brotherton Court Urban Renewal Plan & Roselawn Neighborhood Urban Design Plan.
