Summary: The Butte County Courthouse is a modern two-story courthouse located in the Meriam Park Development in Chico, California. The courts building is located at the south end of the site creating a strong urban edge facing onto a proposed public park across the street. The primary public circulation is located along the south elevation of the building, providing views and access to daylight. The elevation is articulated by a series of double height stone clad window seats that project out over the widened pedestrian sidewalk that is shaded by large specimen trees.

As part of a multi-acre planned development, this courthouse proudly stood in an empty field, serving as an anchor point to reorient the center of growth and population away from Downtown Chico. Today, it is surrounded by modern office buildings and commerce. The southern glass façade along the public’s circulation was partially designed around the intent for a “shared front yard” embodied in a public park across the street that, unfortunately, was not realized.

REGIONAL JUSTICE CENTER | LONG RANGE SPACE PLANNING Clark County Real Property Management | antic. 2028 | ~160,000 sf | Las Vegas, NV | $65M | CMAR Responsibilities: PIC, courts planner, programmer, space planning, project team leader, spearheaded client & end-user workshops, evaluated CMAR competitors, presented design responses at County meetings, led team of project manager, designers and production colleagues, negotiated client fee and contract, enhanced client relationships.

Summary: TSK completed the original design and construction of the RJC in 2005 and has served as Executive Architect and Advisor for Courtroom build-outs, renovations, and remodels on behalf of Clark County ever since. Due to massive population growth and the exodus of 3 major departments to their own facilities, the RJC is poised for a major overhaul to buildout 25 new courtrooms and renovate ~100,000 SF of office space. I spearheaded a talented team through the programming, criteria study, move planning and project phasing development in support of a CMAR project delivery method. Project will have 12 separate phases and permit packages.

Responsibilities: PIC, courts planner, programmer, space planning, project team leader, spearheaded client & end-user workshops, presented at County meetings, led team of project manager, architect, designers, production colleagues, developed/negotiated client fee and consultant contracts, strengthened client relationships.

Summary: The Douglas County Courts and I have a long-standing partnership spanning over 10 years. I have advised and developed multiple iterations of project concepts to address shifting political and fiscal priorities on their behalf. We devised numerous layouts, space planning criteria, and budgets that were responsive to the County’s custom needs. The most recent is a five courtroom facility, housing District and Justice Courts, Clerk of the Courts, Juvenile Probation, District Attorney, and Jury Services. These planning efforts were presented to the public and City Council on several occasions for edification and agreement.

Initial redline & draft sketches guided the development of hardline drawings.

Summary: The Municipal Courts have seen unprecedented growth in programs and service base with the increased population of Las Vegas.

Rather than continue leasing space within the Regional Justice Center, the City published a solicitation for P3 (Public Private Partnership) proposals to provide the Courts with their own dedicated facility. Working hand-in-hand with our partners, we provided a tailored and thoughtful design to enhance the Courts programmatic needs. I provided guidance and insight to courthouse functionality with particular attention to security, acoustical privacy, ease of public wayfinding, and floor plans that support efficient departmental operations. In support of the P3 partnership, we utilized our historical and contemporary knowledge of courthouse design to expedite the preparation of preliminary design documents for presentation and pricing.

NEW ORLEANS PARISH CIVIL DISTRICT COURTHOUSE MASTERPLAN New Orleans Parish | 2015 | 299,000 sf | New Orleans, LA | $115M | P3 Responsibilities: Sr. Project Manager, courts designer, programmer, space planning, site analysis, design team leader, co-presented client workshops, led team of 3 designers and production colleagues, managed end-user relationships.

Summary: In partnership with Billes Architects, we were brought in to provide courthouse planning expertise and validate the programming and project criteria for a new high-rise courthouse. As the result of in-depth and constructive workshops with the judiciary and court departments, six district options were developed for selection. The resulting study informed the client’s project budget and delivery selection process. I was responsible for interviewing judges and court departments, programming, massing, and departmental adjacency planning.

SOUTHWEST JUVENILE COURTHOUSE NEW JUDICIAL FACILITY Superior Court of California | 2017 | 14,000 sf | Riverside, CA | $14M | CM, Multi-Prime - Vanir Responsibilities: PIC, Sr. Project Manager, courts designer, programmer, space planner, site analysis, project team leader, led team of architect, coordinator, construction administrator, designers and production colleagues, managed consultant contracts, fee, and supported client relationships.

Summary: The courthouse sits on a hill attached to a juvenile detention facility and near the fivestory main courthouse. It houses delinquency and dependency courtrooms with separate holding areas. We took considerable care to develop a fiscally responsible material palette and design aesthetic that met the judiciary’s request for an enduring presence that reads clearly as a courthouse. The result is an understated classicism, distinctly civic, while remaining within budget and fitting appropriately within the larger judicial campus.

REGIONAL JUSTICE CENTER | COMPLEX LITIGATION COURTROOM Clark County Real Property Management | 2022 | 2,600 sf | Las Vegas, NV | $1.7M | Design-Bid-Build Responsibilities: PIC, courts planner, space planning, project team leader, spearheaded client & end-user workshops, presented design responses at County meetings, led team of project manager, architect, coordinator, construction administrator, designers and production colleagues, negotiated client fee and contract, managed client relationships, negotiated/resolved construction issues.

Summary: With the Nevada Supreme Court’s departure from the RJC, the prior courtroom on the top floor became available for repurposing.

Working closely with Chief Judge Bell and Court Operation leaders, I spearheaded the design for renovating and creating a flexible Complex Litigation Courtroom for the District Courts. We devised a unique, custom mounting system to reposition the bar, thereby creating 3 courtroom configurations as needed : maximum public seating, maximum counsel seating, and balanced.

REGIONAL JUSTICE CENTER | 3RD & 4TH FLOOR - 8 COURTS BUILDOUT Clark County Real Property Management | 2013 | 48,700 sf | Las Vegas, NV | $21.9M | Design-Bid-Build

Responsibilities: Sr. Project Manager, courts designer, programmer, space planning, project team leader, spearheaded client, end-user, & project team workshops, presented design responses to County Officials, led team of architect, project coordinators, designer, construction administrator, and production colleagues, devised project fee, work plans, developed/ managed consultant contracts and strengthened client relationships.

Summary: After helping the Courts design and build-out a new E-Filing Department and moving the prior tenant out of the 3rd & 4th floors, Justice Courts required the addition of 8 new courtrooms, chambers, support space, and open offices. These lower floors expand beyond the footprint of the upper tower and were not structurally designed to support standard court dimensions. The challenge was further complicated by the need to remove two internal, secondary load transfer columns. The solution resulted in small, yet functional, and minimally compromised courtrooms with jury boxes. A raised floor system was devised throughout the courtrooms to provide A/V and lowvoltage flexibility for future technologies.

Full 3D models in Revit were developed to convey spatial acceptance by the end-users.

CARSON CITY COURTHOUSE | SPACE NEEDS ASSESSMENT, PI & II Carson City Public Works | 2022 | 30,000 sf | Carson City, NV | $15M Responsibilities: PIC, Sr. Project Manager, courts designer, programmer, space planning, site analysis, design team leader at client & end-user workshops, presented assessment at public meetings with City Officials, led team of designers and production colleagues, negotiated client fee, contracts, and fostered client relationships.

Summary: Carson City is planning for the legislative trigger when the population crosses the threshold for a new judgeship. We provided the City and Courts the best options for reconfiguring their current facility to accommodate 2 new courtrooms and expand the facility to house additional office space. Part of our efforts included comprehensive documentation and analysis of existing staff and space allocations for the Alternative Sentencing, Clerk-Recorder, District Attorney, and Clerks housed in the Courthouse. I then devised potential alternatives that considered leasing off-site space, reconfiguration within the facility, and new construction expansion to the courthouse. I also presented the findings to the Board of Supervisors on behalf of Public Works which resulted in extension of the Assessment to Phase II.

Option that best mitigates client concerns for size, budget, security, and parking impacts.

Summary : In support of the on-going main renovation to the adjacent vehicular port of entry modernization, we devised a temporary pedestrian screening, processing, and holding facility. Our solution adapted an abandoned historical port building and used pre-fab modular units to minimize tax payer costs. I worked closely with GSA, CBP, BP, and ICE representatives to ensure efficient pedestrian queueing, flow, security camera and controlled access placement, along with layers of perimeter protection.

Summary: The project was complex, involving the demolition of multiple buildings, construction of 2 science buildings, gym, elementary school, lunch shelter, and comprehensive interior renovation of the Auditorium and Administration building – all on an active campus. I developed the project’s design language, was integral in winning the DB competition with our partner, devised the phasing plan for a total of 14 DSA packages, and managed at all levels the multiple teams required to maintain simultaneous development of the drawings. I resolved high level design and construction issues, provided strategic input to our partners, and managed the on-going add services for the duration of the 6 year project.
