PORTFOLIO
O B J E C T I V E
To contribute to a company through the use of exceptional design, customer service, and people skills.
I am soon to be a certified AutoCAD Operator and am looking forward to using my design and technical skills in a challenging and rewarding career.
I have experience in planning, development and presentation through the design of residential, commercial and hospitality interior design projects based on class assignments.
My interests in design are towards a 'greener' way to solve common design projects and problems while maintaining a high level of aesthetics.

INTENT | THESIS STATEMENTThe intent was to design a program from scratch to serve the community. I focused on the importance of providing troubled teens with a place to rehabilitate. Many of these teens may need to stay for one night, a few nights, or even longer to stay out of potentially dangerous situations such as an abusive home or a night out on the street.
I believe that a teen rehabilitation centre can be designed to aid in the reintegration of teens into society with passion, direction and a sense of belonging and that this can help to create a brighter future for the youth involved as well as for the city because teens are the future.
BEFORE |102-110 Shuter Street
The building at 102-110 Shuter Street in Toronto was abandoned at this point of time. Built by John Tully, Architect, in 1856, O’Donohoe Row (later to become Walnut Hall and since demolished) is a rare example of a 3-½-storey row house in Toronto. The preferred style in Toronto was detached or semi-detached housing, so it became unfashionable as housing demands changed. It was still a great example of an early Georgian- style brick row building.
It is important to, instead of giving a teen just a place to stay, to give them a place to become well, whether that is physically, mentally or emotionally. They need to be provided with the counseling that is so important to their recovery and integration into society as healthy and contributing individuals.
Before ∙ the building was dilapidated and unsafe for inhabitants

The programming of the Centre for Troubled Youth calls for a building in which the patients and residents can feel at home. If the building were to be too institutional, it would not work as well as a building with residential qualities. I feel that Walnut Hall can provide residential qualities for a health and rehabilitation centre. The Centre for Troubled Youth should also be in an area that is easily accessible to the teens that need the services provided. 102-110 Shuter Street, being close to the Eaton Centre, the subway and the streetcars is in an accessible area. The youth involved in the program would not have to be shipped far away from their homes in order to receive treatment and facilities that they need.
AFTER |Walnut Hall Centre for Troubled Youth
The rehabilitation of this abandoned building would come to represent the rehabilitation of the Moss Park area as well as the rehabilitation of the youth involved in the program.
Before
After ∙ the building’s original vernacular was maintained while the inside was completely renovated to accommodate the new program for the Centre for Troubled Youth.

Before (estimation) ∙ old row housing thin houses with many levels, oddly shaped rooms
After ∙ the main floor becomes the hub of the centre. Check-ins, café, classrooms and group counselling all occur on the main floor. The basement becomes the learning kitchen and utility space.

DETAILS ARE SMALL, BUT…
In the overall scheme of things, details seem pretty small in comparison to vast plans and elevations. They are, however, what make every building and project unique – and stay standing for that matter!

3D drawings start with 2D principles; and with manipulation of the drawing environment, become wire frames, then solid objects and ultimately, rendered objects jumping off the page!
