INTRODUCTION

I am a graduate student at Tulane University, pursuing my Masters in Architecture and Sustainable Real Estate Development.

The collection of work presented in this portfolio is an amalgamation of my interest in Architecture as an interdisciplinary field of study.

I have participated in studios that range from designing at the scale of a cart to the scale of a city-wide master plan.

Throughout my educational experience in Architecture, I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the synergies of areas within the discipline such as technical construction, building sciences, and modes of representation. In particular, I also aim to apply my experiences in Social Innovation and Social Entrepreneurship, and Sustainable Real Estate Development to the work I pursue in Architecture.

I am excited for any opportunities that enable me to continue developing these interests and introduce me to new areas of focus within and outside the field of Architecture.

1. The Yamuna River Project Democratization of Lutyen’s Delhi : Re-envisioning railroad corridors as new neighborhoods Spring 2021 | Iñaki Alday, Pankaj Vir Gupta, Monisha Nasa In the Lutyens’ area in New Delhi, the railway tracks run parallel to the Yamuna and act as a divider between the city and the river. On the west lie the government capital, public amenities, commercial activity, historic monuments, and parks along with cultural amenities in the immediate context such as the Purana Qila, National Zoological Park, Sunder Nursery, and Humayun’s tomb that are currently disconnected from the river floodplain. In contrast, the eastern side of the railway is occupied by the flood plain, infrastructures such as a Bus Depot, storage facilities, energy plants, farmland, a highway. and a park that was formerly a landfill. This project aims to connect Lutyen’s Delhi and the spine of cultural and heritage amenities to the Yamuna flood plain through re-envisioning railroad corridors with affordable housing neighborhoods.

2. Small Center Design Build Studio Prisoner’s Apothecarts Fall 2020 | Emilie Taylor Welty Design Educates Award: Bronze Prize in Responsive Design Small Center’s design/build team worked with the Prisoner’s Apothecary to design and fabricate “Apothecarts,” a series of mobile herbal medicine carts that make healing justice visible and accessible across the City of New Orleans. The carts are filled with plant medicine from the Prisoner’s Apothecary and are used to catalyze public conversations at the intersection of healthcare, social justice, public art, and prison abolition.

Design and fabrication of Apothecarts by Tulane School of Architecture faculty and students through Small Center in collaboration with Solitary Gardens. Design and fabrication and visual representation work was the result of a group process.

Small Center Leads: Emilie Taylor Welty, Nick Jenisch Studio Team: Elizabeth Bateman, Jeremy Baudy, Anna Deeg, Claire Divito, Rebecca Dunn, Adrian Evans, Danelle Martin, Danielle Scheeringa, Bhumika Shirole, Zach Speroni, James Rennert, Dana Ridenour Project Partner: Jackie Sumell, Solitary Gardens Process photos: Small Center design build team Final photo credits: Jose Cotto

3. Don River Redevelopment Intersections Fall 2019 | Erroll Barron The project centers around redeveloping the Don River site in Toronto, Canada. The parcel of land is bounded by a highway, a river, and a train corridor. A master plan was created which strives to improve connectivity within and around the site. The perimeter of the site bordered by the river was designed in further detail. It includes a raised podium that supports a river walk, residential buildings, and a museum slotted between them. The museum aligns with an existing abandoned bridge that is redeveloped to serve as an extension of the museum and provide a connection to the Corktown Commons park across the river.

4. Urban Build 17 Affordable Housing: Design-Build Design: Fall 2021 | Construction: Spring 2022 | Byron Mouton In a partnership with Bethlehem Lutheran Church, the Urban Build 17 team designed an ADA compliant twobedroom single-family home located at 1822 Washington Avenue, New Orleans. The house is part of a larger master plan that includes four affordable housing units, the church, landscaping, and outdoor programming spaces with a three to four year phasing strategy.

Topics of research include efficiency, density, replication, and affordability - while also aiming to provide outcomes of quality thought and design.

5. Aggregate Housing Squares and Blocks Spring 2019 | Javier Mosquera This project is a housing community in New Orleans designed for college students, young professionals, and young families to rent. The separate units that can be accessed by the street on the ground floor are public spaces programmed for stores and other businesses.

There are perforations in between these units that can be used to enter the community courtyard which has elevated paths that create a network across the courtyard and act as a guide towards the stairs. This landscape creates a Detention to store stormwater and also creates zones and variation within the large central courtyard.

There are three different typologies of housing units on the second floor.

The design of the school aims to emulate qualities from the greenway and precedent analysis by designing a wide linear hallway that serves as an interior park to create fun spaces outside the classroom for learning and play.
