Counter Craft Renderings Developed a rendering standard for the company from the ground up. Continually built a material library and developed assets from scratch. Used limited resources and budget available to achieve photo like results. Typical 8-16 hour turnover on renderings. Used SketchUp, Podium, and Gimp to create desired results. Explored dynamic components to accelerate the modeling process. Shop Drawings Created shop drawings from food service consultant sketchech. Understood construction and many critical dimensions in fully framed and multi spec fabrication. Continually improved project standards and practices to enhance project turn-over. Other Projects Used architecture background to develop plans for office expansion. Created measured drawings of shop layout. Oversaw building construction and managed electrical and plumbing contractors.

FKP Architects Texas Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sky Bridge Worked closely with architect to develop one of a kind sky bridge. The multi storied bridge linked three buildings at different elevations, spanned across 5 lanes of traffic including the metro light rail, and remained true to the geometries of an ellipse. NICU Room Assisted the Build Out team to develop patient rooms. Created 3D models and multiple schemes, worked to develop an abstract painterly rendering technique for design presentations.

Mijares Mora Architects Construction Documents Assisted in creating construction documentation for several school projects. Worked on a CD sheet that detailed an entry pavilion that eventually was constructed. Renderings Created Renderings that were used in client presentations and for design development. Fore example, when the communication of plan and section no longer worked for the client, I quickly created a classroom perspective to take to a client meeting the same day with positive results.

Parking will be handled along the top of the canyon and visitors will enter and descend into the building from this location. The building is thoughtful of the existing topography and avoid the disruption of the natural landscape. Another challenge is that a portion of the site is in a flood zone, to offset this, the building will be as close to the canyon wall as possible and elevated above this flood plane. Vineyards will also be included on the site in the southern portion, approximately 6.2 acres of land are available for this, if more is necessary Corrugated Wall the land around the building can also be utilized as vineyards.

Rethinking the Lubbock Fair Summary After an intensive study of the Lubbock Fair involving site visits and extensive discussions and research, we began creating a variety of initial concepts. Following Bernard Tschumi’s urban designing ideas of Composition, Complement, Palimpsest, and Mediation, eventually the plan of laying text over the site became the dominant idea of the project. Denying the fair by burying it in a mound of earth that slopes to the neighboring road provides a surface to embed the structure of the new program elements in a series of buildings. Key Skills
• Historical research of the site • Photo / Diagram study of the existing fair • SketchUp modeling • Photoshop compositing

The Upper Kirby District approached Texas Tech University graduate architecture students to come up with schematic designs for a YMCA facility. The Upper Kirby District currently owns and recently acquired approximately 4.09 acres of land adjacent to Levy Park. It is located at the intersection of Richmond Avenue and Wakeforest Drive. It is currently comprised of three office buildings and a small apartment complex which will be demolished and replaced with a new YMCA building. The vision is to create a civic campus of recreational amenities available to the surrounding communities. As well as a full service YMCA, this campus will host a ‘Journey to Learning Center’ (incorporating educational advancements), a health and wellness center, a language educational service, and an environmental education service.

Santa Fe Trail Collection A photo collection was made of objects in the earth (rocks) and then their subsequent void when removed. We then diagramed this process and the resulting diagrams and concepts eventually evolved into the basis of our design. Design Concept We created a series of concrete arms (their length varied depending on the diagram application to the path) that would support and elevated trail. These arms would also house wire panels that might have to be moved to continue down the path of the trail. The way-stations on the trail collapse and store themselves between two structural members. Key Skills
• Collecting field data on site using 3D laser scanner • 3D Animation • Model Building • Drafting

The Lion & The Mouse Story Board Identified story to tell and developed story boards depicting the scenes to be created. The storyboard style defined the art direction and theme of the characters. Create 3D Assets Created all 3D assets in this animation from scratch or combined images. For example, the lions material is carpet while the mouse is made of burlap. Record Audio Voice Overs Rehearsed and recorded several takes of audio, edited and adapted audio to work for each scene. Edit Used Adobe Premier to assemble audio and video. Created introduction and credit roll. Packaged to DVD format that could be used in standard DVD player.
