Guided by input from students of Wichterlovo Gymnazium, our design for Poruba’s academic square focuses on creating a unified space that connects the school with Hello Gymnazium. Incorporating features and materials the students requested for the space, the design includes a mixture of soft and hardscaped areas with many seating and work-space options, as well as open space for recreation and opportunities for participatory art projects.

ABOUTME I am currently working as a Long Range and Strategic Planner for the City of Charlotte. I love the community engagement component of the public sector and am passionate about our current project, the Charlotte Future 2040 Comprehensive Plan. However, I believe that my true strengths lie within the urban design realm. I graduated with a master in urban design from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in August 2018. During my undergraduate career, I studied environmental decision making, urban planning, and geography at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have experience working for design firms, local governments, non-profits, and academic institutions. I am currently looking for a full-time position that will allow me to make a positive impact on communities and the built environment using my planning background and design skills. I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, ArcGIS, SketchUp, and Rhinoceros 3D. I prefer to work in creative, collaborate environments and I do not shy away from learning and working with new software.

The warehouse district which was constructed between 1883 to 1927 is one of the most preserved districts in Hamburg. This building was systematically planned to maintain the hierarchy and frame the buildings with the water. The framing of the buildings to water depicts the importance of the waterways. The canals are too narrow for new commerical ships, leaving the area avalible for private boats, docks, and cafes.

EVOLUTION OF PAVEMENTS - F The pavement patterns evolves as one moves from the warehouse district towards the main city centre.

RECORDING ENGAGEMENT This project takes a deeper look into the subtle and obvious design elements that work to bring the community together in public space. First, these elements were organized based on scope - from micro to macro. The elements were also categorized based on the observations in Jan Gehl’s Book, “Life Between Buildings” : to assemble rather than disperse, integrate rather than segregate, invite rather than repel, open up rather than close in. I was responsible for the creation of the background map, layout, and text.

DILLEHAY COURTS SITE ANALYSIS & DESIGN This studio project focused on Charlotte’s North End Smart District and the existing Dillehay Courts Neighborhood. At the recommendation of the city, a concept for redevelopment was created; focusing on affordable housing, connectivity, open space, street life, and smart technology.

ability of each tax parcel in Mecklenburg County, taking into account the environmental conditions, land-building value ratio, vacancy status, proximity to the light rail, and current use. The parcels that are categorized as exempt were undevelopable based their current use (ex: hospital, government building, cemetery, park, etc.) and/or environmental condition (ex: floodplain, topography). This script can be easily edited to analyze a different area of land, and the classification parameters can also be changed. The current parameters were adapted from the parcel suitability analysis in Urban Land Use Planning, 4th Edition.

“The park gives us a lot of space to enjoy each other and relax with our dog. I also run a small business and really appreciate the co-work spaces that give me a premium location without signing a long-term lease.” -Jack, 31

“There is never a dull day here. The shops along the East Habour Transit Hub are very diverse and the park is always hosting events. My wife and I are only a bike ride away from work.” -John & Janie, 50

“We love living here. The new community center and market provides more space for the people of Toronto to share their cultures and past experiences through food and festivities. My wife is also teaching a dance class on the Tinikling.” -Ernesto & Ligaya, 38

“Work is one stop away from living and entertaining. My wife and I enjoy all of the activities the park provides.” -Dave, 42

“Being able to afford a place so close to Downtown has been wonderful. The transit hub enables us to travel and keeps us close to our children and grandchildren. They usually come here on weekends to join us at different cultural events.” -Anita ,82, & Dick, 86

THE RAILYARD Our Fall studio focused on the potential of an underutilized rail yard located in Charlotte’s rapidly developing North End. Each student in the 13 person class was responsible for leading the design of one portion of the site, creating a section, and rendering a perspective. My portion of the site was bound by 25th Street to the east, 27th Street to the west, Lamb Lane to the north, and W. Common Wealth Avenue to the south. I was also responsible for the creation of the street grid and the development of the rhino model.
