iMage Architecture Film Archive
Florence, Italy
This project, located in Florence, Italy, housed a private architecture film collection which served an international architectural audi-ence. The building is situated on the exit ramp of the Uffizi Gallery, and would serve as the primary exit to the museum, while expos-ing the work of iMage to the greater public. The project uses intersecting volumes to create dynamic interstitial spaces where public and private collide.

University College London Student Union
London, United Kingdom
This project, located in Central London at the University College London, the third largest school in the UK, serves as a new gateway into the University as well as a new student union. The project serves as a unique new entry point while framing a view from the street of the historic Wilkins Building Dome using a massive elements around a large picture window. Additionally, the project creates a new urban street to link the street front to the interior quadrangles of the campus.

ArtHab Homeless Art Facility
Los Angeles, Californiaproject completed collaboratively with Matthew Wood
This project, located in Skid Row in Los Angeles, California, serves as a homeless rehabilitation center in the form of a combined residence and art therapy facility. The complex aims to foster the creative potential of the homeless community in skid row and using this to benefit both the users and the community as a whole. The project uses the formal elements of the existing industrial and residential complexes in Los Angeles and creates a new typology combining them.

Analysis of Alice Cook Houseby Kieran Timberlake Architects
Ithaca, New Yorkproject completed collaboratively with Alyson Canal, Sally Morrow and William Stattman
The Alice Cook House was the first of a series of housing buildings for Cornell University in Ithaca, NY in 2004 by Kieran Timberlake Archi-tects. For the Syracuse Advanced Building System Course, I worked collaboratively to analyze the building systems of the house, such as enclosure systems, structural systems, and environmental systems. Using various programs and working in a group, we ana-lyzed the building’s original inten-tions of prefabrication as well as the systems as they were built and installed.

Graphic Work
In my architectural designs and other endeavors I often create distinct graphics that either aid in my project designs, provide for external visualization or simply as an art form. My self-teaching of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator at a young age have allowed me to explore the computer as a medium that can supplement sketching to strongly convey ideas, schemes and scenarios. This technique has allowed me to apply these visual techniques to other architectural drawing.
