MY STORY Born and raised in Haines, Alaska, I have grown up with a life full of adventure and a love for being outdoors. My passion for art and creativity is what drove me to a career in interior design. I see interior design as a field that betters peoples daily lives by focusing on the how humans react in the spaces in which they inhabit. I have a strong passion for design that works with and for the environment around us.

COMMERCIAL Saint Orsola (Florence, Italy) Project: The Saint Orsola Market was an adaptive re-use project . The building was originally built as a convent in the 14th century. Currently it is vacant and being excavated for Mona Lisa’s bones. This group project was led by Italian professor Guido Incerti. Together my two teammates and I used the concept of community, culture and connection to create a space that provides Florence with an ethnic market, art studios, offices and a cooking school with attached restaurant. I took on the first floor and developed it into an ethnic market that can be used by both locals and tourists. This space is connected to the other sections through a spiral staircase that flows to the upper floors in place of the well that had been used for centuries as a centralized community gathering space.
Goals:
• To provide Florence with an ethnic market on the first level • Friendly to locals and tourists • Create the market into a third place • Space for access to quick ethnic meals
Media and Programs used: • AutoCad • Google Sketchup • Shaderlight rendering program • Adobe Photoshop

COMMERCIAL Audian Theater (Pullman, Washington) Project:
The goal of this project was to create a vibrant and welcoming place where students, community members and others may come to relax, dine, socialize and view movies or local football games on a large screen. The once popular theater is full of character that is utilized in this design. Main levels are accessed by an ADA ramp so that all people can enjoy it. The space defines three areas: the lounge, restaurant and upstairs bar. The lounge can be used for students to hang out, or do homework. The restaurant was designed to accommodate families, small groups and business meetings. The lounge and bar are served by the restaurant. The upstairs bar uses the existing theater projection windows as a design element allowing customers to get a glimpse to the rest of the space.
Goals:
• Keep the essence of the theater • ADA accessible • Needs: bar, restaurant, kitchen lounge, stage
Media and Programs used: • Revit • Autocad • Adobe Photoshop

feeling of intimacy and comfort. bar elevation

Project:
r e s i d e n t i a l
The Painterly house was designed for a cookbook writer who lives in the city. The client requested a weekend retreat where she can escape to relax and focus on her writings. The house was designed around four existing columns and a cement retaining wall. The client desired a large kitchen and personal garden. In order to fully understand the way that light changes the atmospheric feelings of a space throughout the day, I created several light moment models that then translated into the final design of the restroom. The sliding screens act to filter the light that streams into through in a calming sensation.
Goals:
• Design a small, easily accessible garden • Create a light moment study model
Media used:
• Hand drafting • Hand crafted models [2]

Project: The bathroom was inspired by the painting “Oriental Poppies” by Georgia O Keefe. The painting portrays contrast through color between the dark center of the poppies and the red petals. Overall the painting has a sense of calm and warmth. The bathroom captures the sense of calmness by using a Oriental theme. The light colored travertine flooring contrasts with the dark tiles behind the tub and in the shower. The dark pebbles surrounding the light tub create a zen-like atmosphere and contribute to another layer of contrast. Fiber optic lights above the soaking tub make the viewer feel like they are out in nature. Behind the bronze tiles are hidden lights that project a soft glow of light, casting against the dark café tiles.
Goals:
• ADA accessible roll-in shower • Show inspirational painting concepts in the final design • Clearly hand render Daltile tiles so they can be easily identified • Use only Daltile products
Media used:
•Hand renderings

COMMUNITY Valley Heritage Center (Valley, Washinton) Project: In collaboration with Washington State University’s Rural Community Design Initiative (RCDI), the community of Valley, WA asked the junior studio to design their “Little White School House”, creating a heritage center where current residents can display their numerous historical artifacts. Our studio worked in groups of two developing the schoolhouse into a multifunctional heritage museum, community gathering spot and job learning center. The final design follows the concept of past, present, and future. The floor plan leads the viewer through interactive displays from Valley’s past to the possible future. Throughout the course of this project I gained a deeper view of the challenges and benefits in with working together with a large group of people who each had different views of the final project.
Goals:
• To create a space that unifies the community of Valley by bringing together all generations • Create a design that portrays the historical value of the places and people around them and how their history pertains to their future. • To encourage tourism in Valley and the surrounding counties.
Media and Programs used: • Autocad • Shaderlight • Adobe Suite • Google Sketchup

Future of Valley
The History of the Land exhibit was designed to inform the residents and tourists of Valley, WA about the original inhabitants and agricultural history. A dig box with artifacts is provided as a hands-on learning tool.
The Story Corner includes recorded stories for residents of Valley, placed into an antique designed living room. A wall touch screen monitor allows viewers to pick and choose stories while comfortably seated.
The Little White School House exhibit features desks and yearbooks donated by the residents of Valley. This exhibit is designed to teach the viewers about the rich history of the building and all that it has endured.
The Silica plant located across the street, has played a huge industrial and employment role for Valley. We felt it important to inform the residents the role it has played in their history. The outdoor play space will incorporate sand from the plant in a mini put-put.
This exhibit allows viewers to write down what they in envision the future of Valley to be. During the opening ceremony there will be a time capsule in which residents can place their visions. The capsule will be opened on the twentieth anniversary.

The design process for the Depot started with the existing clock on the building. Ideas relating to time, lead to fifty parti drawings. The final parti was then used in a repeating pattern to create a yard of fabric. The design of the fabric was transcribed into a mosaic back splash.
