EXPERIENCE Broadcaster and Content Creator at Twitch.tv Since December 21, 2020 I have developed the ability to produce, schedule, and broadcast video content to a remote website on a weekly basis, balanced with my school work. I analyze audience retention data to produce targeted content for my audience’s wants and needs. I have experience with video and audio capturing devices, as well as video editing software.

Pro Shop Antendant at LSU Golf Course Since January 2019 I have developed a way of balancing my time with school work and attending to customers. Learning to work in pairs with my coworkers to accomplish the daily tasks was vital.

Lifeguard & Swimming Lessons Teacher at Dularge Gym 2016-2018 Developing my ability to understand the best way to teach each kid a new skill was an amazing experience.

Lifeguarding taught me to be attentive and patient.

Renovating an abandoned warehouse in Downtown Baton Rouge brings a new life to the area. Natural Ascendance becomes an art gallery that houses local artists’ works in a space of natural serenity. The structural grid supports the ascending flow of circulation through the galleries to the roof top spaces.

Inspired by the lack of birds in the Warehouse Disctric of New Orleans, Louisiana, Nesting Egg creates egg-like exhibition spaces nested inside of a nest-like facade that doubles as a nesting place for birds. This natural science museum in the city provides a place in which humans can learn more about how birds impact the wellbeing of the local ecology and community.

In the bustling life of an elderly Japanese man and a single father with his two kids, these separate households find themselves in search of a place to call home and of people to call family.

The flow of public to private throughout the home offers a seamless transition from space to space. Also, the concise rooms and circulation through these spaces appeases the family’s fast-paced lifestyle. Moreover, offering separate spaces for both hobby and repose caters to the individual desires of each member in the multi-family home.
