May 2023 - August 2023

Fall Semester 2022
About Me Born and raised in the Bay Area, California, I was surrounded by the stunning architecture of San Francisco, the Silicon Valley, and the coast. My passion for design started at a young age when I started collecting samples of wood, tile, and paint to create my own materials library. After high school, I continued my education at Iowa State University, a top ranked CIDA Certified design program. Through residential, retail, education, healthcare, hospitality, exhibition, and workplace design projects done through the design program, I expanded my design knowledge and grew a passion for commercial design. I am eager to continue my design career post-graduation and to see what the design world has in-store for me.

Green Plaza Living 1 Tailored space to suit the needs of seniors in assisted living with a focus on increasing social engagement through a welcoming and supportive environment. This group project incorporates accessible and adaptable design solutions to foster a sense of community amongst its residents and staff. The space includes an abundance of natural elements and plant life to promote mental and physical health. Elements that allude to a neighborhood help residents feel more comfortable and at home, while also strengthening the community. Fall 2023
Residential Units Three 1Bed/1Bath layouts One 2Bed/2Bath layout
User-Friendly Kitchen Aspects: Underlit lighting on base and top cabinets to help visibility Glass cabinets for visibility of items D-pull hardware for easy leverage Sliding drawers to avoid residents bending down
Library Split into a reading and work/meeting section. Custom casework is designed to provide shelving for books, reading nooks, and desks. Residents are able to enjoy this space with their family, meet for book club, or do independent work.
User-Friendly Library Aspects: Low carpet pile height for wheelchairs and/or walkers ADA turning radius Movable chairs have wheels Ample lighting Seating with armrests to help users stand up
Typical Floor Layout There are four residential floors all reflecting the same layout. Each floor holds a different amenity (library, theatre, staff lounge, and bar).

Parks Library Renovation 2
The renovation of Iowa State University’s Parks Library displays the idea of being connected, yet separate, through the division of different spaces. There are connections between human and environment, as well as human and human. Individuals are connected to their surroundings through a variety of individual and collaborative zones.
Spring 2023
Research A survey was sent out to Iowa State students in regards to different environmental factors of the campus’s library. Results of the survey were then used to renovate the space to better accommodate the students’ needs. Location Preferences

Space Saving Design Choices To provide more space, the loft has a Murphy bed that can be folded away, turning the room into an office. Storage is found under the stairs with hidden hinge cabinets. To make the bathroom more spacious, the shower is angled in the corner to open up floor space. For energy efficiency, the roof is comprised of solar panels to power the house with the ample sun.
Burberry Shop-In-Shop 4
This Shop-In-Shop is designed for the luxury brand Burberry. The space represents the timelessness of the brand, as well as emphasizing their classy and lavish product lines. This Burberry store features classic elements of precedent stores, along with an updated color palette and materiality to welcome in a younger audience. By integrating new and traditional design elements, the shop-in-shop creates a modern space to display the iconic Burberry brand. Fall 2022

Custom Features
This glass feature partition is inspired by the new Burberry monogram. By re-imagining the colorful monogram as a monotone pattern, the glass element becomes a transparent window in the store.
This wooden square tile flooring has zinc inlays to mirror the zinc used throughout the store and display elements.

Furniture Design 5
In need of a custom table for a wall display in my house, I designed and crafted this table. Made out of solid walnut, it was important to show off the woods’ natural grain and beauty. The table is topped with a herringbone tile pattern and a surrounding boarder. In this six week long project, I practiced different millwork techniques and tile laying.
Design Features Custom made table for residential space. 60” x 15” Solid walnut Wooden drawer slides Tapered legs Waterfall drawer faces Tile custom cut to size
