“ The key to a great design is capturing the spirit of the client and the essence of the space”

“There is no passion to be found playing small in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” Nelson Mandela

I have an enthusiasm for design and a range of architectural studies. I fully dedicate myself to anything I am working on, remain focused and organized and work hard to achieve my goals. Involvement in my community and its development is important to me.

SUSTAINABLE BUS SHELTERBoone County, MOGroup Project

Concept:With a new public transit route being im-plemented in the Fall of 2014, ComoCon-nect was in need of a new and innovative bus shelter design. Our objective of the bus shelter was to create a design that was sustainable, economical and aesthetically pleasing. Th e modularity of the design al-lows for personalization such as commu-nity artwork or business marketing. Th e materials that are used to create the space are also easily replaceable if damage were to occur and at a low cost. Th is design will create a lasting and safe environment that will aff ect the community in a positive way.

University of Missouri Design SchoolColumbia, MOSenior Th esis

Concept:The new design school for the University of Missouri will demonstrate academic design that ultimately reflects the people using it. It will repre-sent a design school while also reflecting upon the campus by respond-ing to its function and location. The concept of the school of design revolves around intertwining the linearity of the site with the focus of Memorial Union which reflects in the shape of the building. It involves a section of the building that essentially climbs over the administrative wing of the building while taking full ad-vantage of natural light to benefit the student work being created inside. The various heights of the new school of design respect the verticality of Memorial Union while still making a statement. The atrium of the building ties all of the elements together and adjoins the two wings of the building. The design school fundamentally creates a landmark for the campus.
