My name is Katherine Murphy and I am a recent graduate from California Polytechnic University San Luis Obispo now living in San Francisco. I am currently a Designer at Korth Sunseri Hagey Architects, and am keeping active in logging IDP hours and beginning my licensing exams. The profession has so many different areas and opportunities, and I am excited to expand my knowledge and learn how to work collaboratively towards a final project.

The model including freeways, streets, blocks, buildings, and parks, and was designed to be a base for the resulting design to be added to.
