This is a capstone option for the historic preservation certificate.

Developed a Building Performance Auditing course that explores energy per-formance, sustainability, accessibility, seismic, and life safety. This course goes beyond the singular parameter of energy performance and provides an integra-tive holistic perspective to analyzing a building. This course is conducted as a service learning course to a community partner.

Developed the yearlong "Environmental Controls" course sequence including thermal comfort, passive thermal systems, HVAC systems, visual comfort, day-lighting, electrical lighting, architectural acoustics, water resources, fire-

Studio included plan-ning processes, site visits, and existing neighborhood assessment strategies to enable students to create contextually sensitive designs that serve to revitalize an existing neighborhood. The Salt Lake City Redevelopment Authority was the community service partner for this studio.

Taught Historic Preservation/Adaptive Reuse Topic Design Studio. Studio in-cluded adaptive reuse and community revitalization design, site visits, and build-ing documentation strategies to create contextually sensitive designs. The pro-ject was the adaptive reuse of a church into a performing arts center.

Taught Main Street Revitalization and Community Redevelopment course in a service-based learning format. Community-based projects included analysis of Main Street in Ephraim, UT, and the revitalization of the University Neighbor-hood Commercial corridor.

Taught Historic Preservation Theory and Practice Course as a graduate semi-nar.
