PROFILE
I have always had a strong interest in design even before I knew what architecture was. Since then, I have taken every opportunity to translate that interest into a full-fledged passion for architectural excellence and design.

ARCHITECTURE EXPERIENCE
SBLM Architects (Summer 2013), see employment.
UrbanBuild, New Orleans, LA (Spring 2013)
Student led project in which we designed + built an outdoor market/pavilion over a year. Built in Central City, the project added programmatic diversity and brought community investment to the low-income area. We designed six movable (in-house welded) vending pods to turn the site into an outdoor market and pavilion.
Danish Institute of Studies (DIS), Copenhagen, Denmark (Fall 2012)
While abroad I designed and constructed a chair using 200 wooden cogs. The chair holds a curved form when in tension and rolls up when the tension is released. Images were used for the wood companies advertisements.
