Personal Statement
Problem-solving has always been my greatest hobby. Since I was young, I’ve loved piecing together puzzles, answering riddles, and figuring out every math question. Architectural design presents some of the most challenging problems in this world that are just waiting to be solved. Each design decision has both consequences and benefits. As designers, we accept the responsibility to serve the future users of a space to the best of our ability. It is this idea of learning to think for the good of others, and not for ourselves, that makes architecture so difficult. Yet, this is also what excites me about architecture. The more complexities to any problem, the more creative I am encouraged to be, not for myself, but for others. The responsibility and opportunity to create positive change in my envionment is incredibly exciting to me and I cannot wait to start!

Portland is a front-runner in alternative transportation and energy. Portland is also home to a beloved raceway.
These two facts seem to oppose one another, but I wanted to
challenge this idea throughout this project. Although it is
hard to say what will happen to the racecar industry in the future, this project envisions a solution of transition. While
supporting the core future needs of the racing sport, this
design proposal brings together opportunities for interaction
between a driver and an electric vehicle researcher. I believe this interaction would have a mutually benefitial result and that both old and new
transportation methods have things to gain from a more

6. Industry Stewardship
This Visioning Project for Portland International Raceway focused on moving the industry of racing forwards, as well
as planning for the future of the site. The site itself will outlive any of its buildings, which created a heavy influence on how to
design enriching spaces for unbuilt areas of the site. Being within the Columbia Slough
wetland region, this site has a responsibility to create greater expanses of wildlife
corridors.

Current Project06 Terminal Studio: Gabon University Planning & Building Development
Université Omar Bongo, Libreville, Gabon | Associate Professor Dr. Mark Gillem & Adjunct Faculty Barry Gordon | Winter-Spring 2014
1. Workshop in Libreville (Jan. 9-20)
Working with students, faculty, and staff to analyze the existing conditions (using Albert Humphrey’s SWOT Analysis) of the campus
Looking through precedents of successful designs and spaces (quads, streets, & nodes) of campuses worldwide and teaching non-architecture students the principles of design
Designing 4 alternatives and their phasing with students and faculty
Scope: Site Analysis, Visioning, Public Participation & Cross-Cultural Design, Master Planning, Form-Based Codes, Landscape Design, Street & Public Space Design, Building Schematic Design & Design Development, Envelope Detailing
2. Bringing it Home/Production (January-February)
Producing models, drawings, diagrams to illustrate the designs of the collaboration between the studio and the Gabonese students
Carefully avoiding design changes that would alter what we had decided as a cohesive team in Libreville
3. Creating Regulating Plans usingForm-Based Codes (February)
To make a campus design that lasts, it is critical to thinking about the future
The Form-Based Codes specify:
Parcels of land for development, what type of development, build-to lines, setbacks, parking placements, designated open spaces, critical building entry points, and minimum/maximum building heights
Phasing from Workshop
The Four Alternatives: 1. Minimum Demolition 2. Compact Infill 3. Radial Plan 4. Maxiumum Demolition
Reviewing and refining designs for both the master plan of the campus and the infrastructure

4. Design New Campus from Regulating Plans (March)
Using the Form-Based Codes, we will wipe away all existing buildings and design with a clean slate
This will test our regulating plans’ accuracy and success for the future, as the existing buildings begin to reach the end of their lifespan
5. Building Typology Studies (March)
As a precursor to developing individual campus building designs, we will do a study on university and education building typologies.
6. Individual Building Schematic Design & Design Development (April-June)
This stage of the studio will be more similar to a traditional studio, in that we will design individual buildings on the campus design alternative of our choice.
We will later present our design schemes as examples of possible sustainable solutions to the University.
7. Come to a Design Consensus (June)
Nine Gabonese students and possibly a faculty member will be traveling to the University of Oregon to meet with us and consolidate the four alternatives into one campus scheme

Recycled Trombe Wall 08Environmental Control Systems I | Professor Alison Kwok & Adjunct Faculty Matt Hogan | Winter 2012 | Second-Year Course
An Up-Cycled Exploration
In theory, this up-cycled cob wall acts similar to a traditional mass-and-glass assembly for a trombe wall. The only difference is that the air cavity is divided into smaller portions, held within the glass bottles.
Results: the empty bottle assembly performed better than the plain cob in regards to maximum temperature reached. The water-filled assembly, on the other hand, retained its heat for longer than the two other assemblies.
Purpose: to compare a standard cob wall’s heat capacity to that of an up-cycled wall assembly of cob and recycled bottles.
Hypothesis: the recycled glass bottles will absorb the sun’s heat, and then transfer the heat to the thermal mass of the cob. Indirect gain from the suns rays then radiates the heat after there is no longer exposure to sunlight.
