HELLO Traveling is my biggest passion. I love to see different architecture, meet new people and experience other cultures. I’m very artistic. I enjoy drawing, painting, collaging, sculpting, you name it. I am active and like to try new things. I love hiking and exploring places aimlessly.

I love photography, specifically black and white. Daniel Libeskind and Lebbeus Woods are two of my favorite Architects, and I am an ambitious and self-motivated designer, always ready for something new and exciting!

01CULTIVATE

Cultivate is a community center located in Salt Lake City, Utah. After researching the area and community programs, my colleague and I decided to implement vertical farming as the main program. Vertical farming is an efficient way to grow local produce, provides the community with volunteer opportunities and encourages community involvement. The shape of the building encloses the open plaza which holds various events for the community. The greenhouse, facing south, acts as a buffer by collecting solar gains. Once the greenhouse has reached its required temperature, the additional heating gets regulated throughout the building.

02PHASE 1

The threat of New York City’s ever-growing population, rapidly declining land availability, and rising sea levels has created demands that conventional building methods cannot meet. Four cores, a gridded truss, and suspension cables define a module that can be built on top of itself, changing the direction of urban sprawl. These elements allow a building to be constructed in phases, allowing each phase to address the most pressing concern for the city at the time that it’s built. A building of this type would be under constant construction, making the cranes atop the building the vehicles that push the design into the future. Floor plates are suspended from the gridded truss, allowing them to take on any shape demanded by the various programs that will be held in the building. This building type is unaffected by the threat of rising sea levels, as each phase is a separate building, allowing lower modules to be vacated and the program reconstructed on top of the latest module. This is the building type of the future.

03GERMINATE

Germinate was designed to transform Philadelphia into a Smart City fit for 2050 and years beyond. The process begins with revitalizing Philadelphia’s current public transportation, both regional and state-wide, by extending 30th Street Station’s program to accommodate the predicted population increase. Germinate is designed to be constructed and reproduced quickly and efficiently through current and future construction methods. The building structure and program pods will be 3D printed to keep up with the growth of the city and to encourage versatility within the building to adapt to the city’s changing demands.

BANYAN TREE

1 - HOST STRUCTURE Banyans are epiphyte plants, meaning they attach to another surface and use that surface’s nutrients to grow.

2 - POLLINATION tiny wasps plant seedlings. the seedlings settle into crevices and begin to grow on the existing plant.

Banyan Tree | Bio-Inspiration

3 - AERIAL ROOTING using the existing plant’s nutrients, the banyan tree begins to mature, producing thin roots that will hang from the existing plant.

4 - CONTINUED GROWTH the banyan roots continue to grow and eventually thicken, touching the ground resembling a tree trunk.

5 - KILLING HOST most of the time, the banyan will drain the life from the host tree and take over, growing its own leaves. the tree dies and leaves a void on within the banyan roots.

CABIN COMPETITION

04

Pump House was designed by Branch Studio Architects as a weekend retreat for the clients. It is located at the Worlds End State Park in Sullivan County, Pennsylvania. The cabin sits atop of the Loyalstock Canyon Vista with an amazing view over the tree tops from the mountain side. The design of the cabin is a rectangular, shed-like structure with large glazing and doors on each side that provides a complete pass-through of the home and allows the cabin to open up to the surrounding natural environment. It is entirely self-sustaining featuring a wood stove for heating, solar panels for electricity and tanks for collecting and recycling water. The design of Pump House is one open room creating an intimate experience between the user and nature. The Pump House cabin features the necessities to live without compromising its simplicity.

04ORANGE ST

Orange St. is three single family row homes located at the corner of Orange St. and Miller St. in Philadelphia’s Fishtown neighborhood. Each home totals just over 3,000 SF and consists of two bedrooms, a full floor master suite and a private roof deck. While my colleague was primarily responsible for the design, I assisted with the elevations and minor plan tweaks. I was responsible for drawing a full construction document set and the first building permit submission.

05CANNO VISUALIZATION

The following images are CannoDesign projects which I was responsible for building the Revit model, rendering and adding entourage. The process consists of building the model, then changing out colors, materials and design options for approval before rendering the final image. The turn over for images is quick to deliver to clients in a timely manner.
