Past Projects

Initially, this client went to another designer who gave them a lackluster and poorly designed home for their mountain top residence overlooking the Appalachias. Redesigning to fit their budget, we were able to reduce the square footage, give better views, and maximize the use of their space in an elegant and functional manner. The result? Happy clients who were excited for their new home!

As project manager on this project with Charlan Brock Architects, I designed the amenity buildings and ensured that all structures complied with the various building and accessibility codes. The project is near a town that is deeply affected by hurricanes so additional requirements had to be met for insurance purposes. 

I was promoted to project manager from job captain during this student housing project. It was interesting to work with the various unit shapes to try to get equitable space and bathrooms for every resident. This property features an integrated clubhouse on the first floor of one of the many apartment buildings on site.

I completed this project as a job captain at Charlan Brock, meaning I led the internal teams and coordinated with the various consultants but did not deal directly with the budget nor chose the scheduling. The challenge that we face here was the site was smaller but we still needed to have a specific number of units. This was resolved through use of fire walls, which allowed for a singular condensed structure that could be counted as multiple buildings in order to meet code requirements.

I ran the Florida remodel division for Aldi during my time at Cuhaci & Peterson. These projects were fast paced, and varied from cosmetic remodels to full on building additions to expand existing stores. All in all, I did around 90 Aldis in under 4 years, around 70 of which, in my final 2 years at the firm. This shaped my experience as I was able to create, dictate and train teams in a new process in order to make the project flows work well for everyone involved. 

My thesis project at the University of Notre Dame. A dedicated building to house the offices of the various athletic committees, a sports library, hall of fame, gift shop and more. Growing up heavily involved in sports, I wanted to ensure that there was a centralized meeting place for all sports within the Queen Elizabeth Sports Centre campus where various local and prestigious games are held.

Another school project, this was one of my favorite projects to do. A sliver of land by the Colosseum begging to be made more welcoming to locals and visitors alike. This park would feature various locations for interactions and quiet respites. With a few water features including fountains and a small grotto, I imagine that if built this project would have been teeming with recurrent visitors.
