Suggested typical bus stop, Grand Rapids, MI

My first task in architecture was to create a physical model over the summer of 2004. The cheesecloth canopy was delivered by the canopy sub-consultant. I built the rest of the model around this base. The model is now displayed in
the front lobby of DDOT’s headquarters.
Physical ModelRosa Parks Transit Center
My role in this project was to design several options to show how a bus transfer hub might fit on an oddly shaped lot in Miami, FL. The primary challenge was separating nearby private school traffic from bus traffic along NE 165th St. Special care was taken to ensure that site
circulation was feasible and safes as the turning radii are near the limits of a typical bus.
Site Design / Master PlanningMiami NEPAC
Site Design / Master PlanningA proposed extension of Chicago’s commuter rail system. These two proposals demonstrate bus and rail facilities integrated into two
different sites along I-94. My role was to convert a prototype layout to fit both sites and to show via massing studies of how the stations would appear from a nearby overpass.
Chicago South Station Concept
My first site plan. We proposed a simple transfer center and included the option to include a transit center.
Site Design / Master PlanningPainesville Transit Hub
Our Client for this project desired a traditional structure which would blend into the surrounding area. We were able to propose a transit center which concealed a modern interior under a traditional roof line.
Schematic DesignPainesville Transit Hub
Starting with a parking garage plan supplied by a sub-consultant, my role was to design an aesthetically pleasing “skin” for the structure including vertical circulation towers. Bus loading operations took place under the garage.
Schematic DesignUtica Transit Center
Landscape and canopy design. My role was to assist in the design of a canopy to cover the site and to propose a preliminary site design.

As a part of a retail buildout in Citi Field, home of the NY Mets, I assisted in the creation of a full CD set. This included specialty retail mill-work, CNC files, and finishes. I travelled to NY to field measure the site and helped coordinate all the drawing set.
Construction DocumentationRetail Buildout
As a part of a settlement agreement relating to a highway bridge, I was involved in the repair of a loading dock wall. This relatively small project was challenging in that I had to figure out how the wall was originally assembled based on a series of photographs. The exterior wall was relo-
cated behind the face of the building.
Construction DocumentationWalnut St. Dock Renovation
I was asked to create a set of build-out plans for a small office. The program included a conference room, kitchenette, and space for inspectors to write reports.
Construction DocumentationI-75 Office Build-out
As a part of the PB team, I assisted in the preparation of numerous sheets in the final construction drawing set.

As part of the Citi Field Retail Buildout, I created cnc files and shop drawing level documents for several pieces of millwork.
Millwork & CNC FilesRetail Build-out
Throughout the construction of Rosa Parks Transit Center I was asked to prepare many sketches in response to a variety of field
conditions. These sketches demonstrate and understanding of the construction process and critical problem solving skills.

Massive Disaster Relief was the subject of my final project at LTU. The project focused both on providing housing and community
services to the victims of natural disasters.

The first portion of the project was to prepare a housing solution suitable for a variety of scales. The proposed solution can accommo-
date very large populations or be deployed for a single family.

Community services are the most difficult to provide following a natural disaster. This proposed pavilion is flexible enough to meet
the most common needs of survivors.
Lawrence Technological UniversityMasters Thesis
A key need following natural disasters is a need for information. The pavilion provides access to television news and internet access. Information desks provide an easy legal access for victums legal needs. This includes government ID and financial aid programs.
