acsa / aisc national steel design COMPETITION :: senior project

12/2011-6/2012 Team members : -architectural engineer sunny bruns -architects borge raknes tina aude nesa mateusz krupa


Set on waterfront of Puget Sound is a proposed design for a convention center and hotel project. The site is directly over a set of railroad tracks, so the entire project is lifted 30 feet above the existing ground level. Because of the convention center’s long spans, diagrid/space truss system is used as the main structural system to create a draping “veil� over a series of program spaces. This concept was adopted by the hotel as well but in the vertical plane, creating a skin element over the building.

9/2012-3/2013 Team members : -architectural engineers joseph rice khloe campos -architects thomas shorey daire heneghan derek holloway danton spina smita naik joanne ha john donley


Through a relationship with Arup and the Arup Cause, a group of 10 architecture & architectural engineering graduate students designed the initial master plan for Same Polytechnic College in Tanzania. The college will host ~1,000 students under 7 different colleges that are set up in a similar way as Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. The project heavily involves various sustainable techniques in structural design that are site-specific. The construction will be divided into two main phases.

Following principles are monitored through material selection criteria: Manufacturing process Durability and honesty Local availability and transport Low Carbon Materials/ Environmental impacts of material use Fit the color palette

All proposed materials are locally available or can be procured on site. Structural members should be used to structural engineers specifications.

Located across Chinatown Metro Station near Dodger’s Stadium, Villa Verde is designed to satisfy all 7 Living Building Challenge Imperatives, proposed by the International Living Future Institute. This urban center consists of mixed-income housing, retail, community center, and historic industrial museum. The project provides transit-oriented programs that people can work and live affordably near the heart of L.A. The project is designed as a leading sustainable building example for the future development in Cornfield Arroyo Seco Specfic Plan and LA River Revitalization Plan.

leadership portfolio :: with leadership summit

mentor : dr. ronda beaman


STATEMENT OF LEADERSHIP LEADERSHIP is... making intentional decisions to shape our own story based on positive thoughts and being humble enough to accept the fact that we will always be questioning what we are missing or lacking. Leadership means having a story that is worth telling in order to inspire others to think positively and keep moving forward despite any barriers in life.

~ inspired by Amy K Hutchens

making others believe in the values that leaders carry. Leadership happens one conversation at a time, in each relationship when we discover more of who we are in the context of a bigger world.

~ inspired by Tom Schaff

having control over any adversities that one is faced with, and possessing an ability to turn adversities into innovative, unique opportunities that no one else is able to create in the same magnitude.

~ inspired by Dr. Paul Stoltz

being fearless, regardless of circumstances, in order to lead oneself to achieve desired goals. The most important fact about a leader is that you are all that you can be. Your character and representation cannot be replaced with anything else.

~ inspired by Dr. Khosro Khaloghli

Leaders I personally follow:

.... more to discover!!

Bill and Melinda Gates

Abraham Lincoln

Michael Hyatt

John Maxwell


MY LEADERSHIP STORY I define leadership as fulfilling the needs of others. It first started with the realization at a young age that I had to mature fast for my deaf-mute parents. I grew up acting like an adult and unintentionally identified myself as “unheard” as I often saw my parents being neglected by the Hearing Community. As the Deaf Community became inferior to the Hearing Community in front of my eyes, I was forever changed. Whenever I came across new programs, organizations, or relationships, I found myself impatient when any worthiness went unnoticed. Therefore, I started leading and setting examples for others so that they would take notice of the things I came to value.

Presented my high-rise model design to William (Bill) Baker - Structural Engineer who invented a new concept for the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa.

Over many years, I learned to value others more than myself as I led them in a team setting, and I learned from their strengths and weaknesses for my own personal growth. Since I did not find a personal mentor around me who could relate to my personal story, I sought various mentors through blogs, books, and local communities. I am constantly growing by applying what I learn from leaders around the world. I take great pleasure when my followers are picking up on my new leadership skills. They also keep me accountable to continue growing for the sake of younger generations. One of the leadership qualities I bring to my team is that when my vision is set, I stay very focused and efficient. I make sure that action items are completed on time, and my relationship with teammates always centers around high respect and fairness. Though not extremely adept with words (as English is my third language), I remain reliable to others for excellent deliverables. One practice that puts me in a life-long leadership position is my passion to make Los Angeles a better place to live. As a structural engineer, I can and will be an expert in saving people’s lives through designing resilient buildings under earthquakes. However, I set myself apart from my peers as an exceptional leader not just to solve structural problems well, but also to tackle bigger issues within the built environment, such as health, aesthetics, and energy.

My AQ Score

20% of all international AQ scores are in the range of 158-175 for above average.

C ORE

O WNE RSH IP

The C dimension measures the extent to which I feel I can influence difficult situations. Control is a significant predictor of health, energy, outlook, tenacity, perseverance, innovation, competitiveness, and problem solving.

The O dimension measures the extent to which I tend to “step up� and take initiative to improve difficult situations, regardless of their cause. This tendency may draw people to me when crises arise, and inspire them to step up as well.

R E ACH

E ND U R A NC E

The R dimension assesses the extent to which I let a setback in one area of my life reach over and affect other areas. The goal is to be equally effective with all forms of adversity.

The E dimension assesses how long I perceive adverse events will last or endure. The E dimension captures the duration of adversity and its potentially paralyzing grip on me.


NO-BARRIERS GOAL & ACTION PLANS G OAL :

TOUCHTHETOP. COM

To enter a competition outside of my graduate curriculum to design buildings in LA to be self-sustaining and generating more energy than consumed on-site. Refer to the architectural portfolio subject: Living Building Challenge: Getting L.A. to Zero Student Design Competition.

M OTIV ATI ON:

To conquer a stepping stone to fulfill my bigger vision to renovate LA structures for safety, aesthetics, and health. To inspire younger and older generations that students are capable to impact cities with creative ideas.

A CTION STEPS:

1. Get interdisciplinary team of colleagues and advisors who will play essential roles in the design process. 2. Meet regularly to research and to collaborate on ideas. Also visit project site in Los Angeles. 3. List deliverables that each team member can produce each week.

T I M I NG:

1. Gather team by end of February 2014 & complete submission by May 2014. 2. Meet Tuesdays and Sundays for all group meetings. 3. Visit LA twice for a site visit and for final presentation at Gensler’s office.

O BSTACL E S :

Team members’ schedules do not mesh well. Most teammates are upperclassmen, so they have other responsibilities that are more important than this competition, such as senior projects, grad curriculum, and part-time jobs. Another obstacle is understanding how to incorporate everyone’s input to decisions.

CASE STUDY The Case Study is brought by The Summit Group and its CEO, Phil Styrlund. Our leadership consulting team called, Command Consulting, ranked 2nd place out of 8 teams to satisfy our client’s need.

Since 1993, The Summit Group has prided itself on having experienced employees, which they trust to represent their business in the highest manner all around the world. However, with the challenge of multiple time zones and the personal freedom that employees are given, it becomes difficult to track employees that are located all over the world, much less to connect with them in a personal and encouraging way. Since employees are constantly moving around, it is hard to make a phone call or connect face-to-face. These challenges need to be solved in a simple way that still allows each employee to have their own freedom while satisfying a framework of expectations. Our consulting team researched how The Summit Group’s leadership style interacts with its employees. Something we took careful note of was how the company website

already utilized incentive programs and that the employees have a lot of freedom with their assigned projects. We decided that a computer-based tool, as well as a mobile application called Trello, would be a perfect solution to the company’s challenges.

The application is divided into two main sections- boards and cards. Boards can be made to represent clients, and cards can represent projects being worked on for each particular client. This format gives the viewer the ability to very quickly see an overview of what is going on within the company at any time with the option to delve deeper into the specific projects to provide a more intimate interaction. On each card, users can keep a detailed description of the project including due dates and checklists. Users can also comment on cards in real time. This function provides flexibility to all users to give and receive feedback at their convenience without the need for others to be present. The mobile application will also allow employees to update their progress at any given time regardless of global location or time zone. They can even add files, videos, and images to cultivate a more intimate touch with their work and the way they collaborate with others in the company. Major benefits to Trello include a user-friendly interface, real-time support and feedback, and a price tag of “free!” We are confident that every one of The Summit Group’s employees will be able to quickly learn how to use Trello and effectively implement this application in their work.
