This 4,000 sq. ft. blacksmith studio serves as forgery, showroom, and offi ce space. Form and concept were derived through the creation of material wall studies. A gantry crane is the backbone of the facility, visually tying programmatic elements into a cohesive whole. North facing light shafts allow natural light into the shop space.

This portable soft shell structure acts as an adaptable classroom for an alternative school in Sante Fe, NM. I lived and worked in Paradise Valley for six weeks in the summer of 2009 with fellow students Sten Witmer, Kevin Pruski, and Paul Alvarez, to design and build this aluminum framed structure which functions as both meeting place and teaching tool. Qualities of light, warmth, and connection to the exterior environment were emphasized.

This 16,000 sq. ft. Marketplace & Community center is designed to function as a place of exchange-- of goods, ideas, thoughts, and values. Solid and void elements are connected by the extrusion of the ground level threshold. A massive vertical circulation ramp physically binds the interior and exterior environments. The resulting structure emphasizes circulation and promotes personal engagement.r

Plan 01

The Northside of Bozeman is fi lled with hidden detail. Beneath layers of form and space lie material and aesthetic relics soaked in the patina of time. Each venture into the Northside is fi lled with a genuine sense of discovery. Historically, this old railroad district has been the nucleus for hasty, myopic growth in the Gallatin Valley. Healthy change is needed. The Northside Discovery Project will work to promote a community oriented approach toward self- suffi cient, sustainable living and to redirect the current trajectory of growth in a positive direction. The Northside Discovery Project consists of a Co-op style dormitory and a sustainable living school that will work in tandem to improve the quality of life in Bozeman and beyond. From the inside, however, New Orleans is so full of l ife that it ’s tough to imagine the world

SLOW FLOW is a phased remediation proposal for Grand Canyon National Park’s South Rim, its 5 million annual visitors, employees, residents, their annual water consumption and the cost of that consumption. Each scale of the proposition is defi ned by a top down/bottom up strategy mitigating the water-energy nexus that strives to inspire dissemination and conservation througheducation, exposure of systems, and enhanced visitor experience. SLOW FLOW was completed in the Fall of 2011 by a group of 12 MSU graduate students and was submitted to the Drylands Competition, sponsored by the Arid Lands Institute.

Increased CO2 emisions are the cause of the current Global Warming epidemic. The majority of Grand Canyon National Park’s 5 million annual visitors experience the Park from vehicles.

High capacity rail lines from Williams and Flaggstaff eliminate the need for private vehicles in the Park. A high frequency light-rail system increases visitor access to the majestic beauty of the canyon. The result, enhances visitor experience, builds community, and heals the ailing planet.

The gabion performs as a contemporary, morphing, visual rhyme to the architecture of the Grand Canyon and its’ native inhabitants.

Gabions are adapted to watershed terrain and enhance localized water retention. Gabions bring people to water rather than water to people, a crucial issue in the Arid West.

This project is an investigation of Wind and Water. Wind and water were initially observed with time-lapsed photography and hourly walks to the Yellowstone River. These exercises provided not only a visual understanding of the elements, but an experiential understanding as well. Next, wind and water were investigated through the lenses of art and science. The resulting interest led to the development of a series of weather and river observatories in the Paradise Valley. Existing river access points were chosen as sites. Observatories are designed to monitor and conserve the Yellowstone River ecosystem through the collection of river and weather data and to act as experiential apertures that reveal the essence of the Yellowstone River and the Paradise Valley.

This analysis investigated day lighting opportunities for the renovation of the Boys and Girls Club, located in Red Lodge, MT. The intent of the study was to ascertain the best use of top-lighting and side-lighting design strategies to eff ectively daylight the renovated facility. Day lighting analaysis was conducted with AGI 32 day lighting software.

Since January of 2010 I have worked as a lab assistant in the Integrated Design Lab. The Integrated Design Lab is a Northwest Energy Effi ciency Alliance funded program and is supervised by Professor Tom Wood. Our services include energy and lighting analysis for Montana architects who wish to become more aware of the environmental impacts of energy consumption.

This analysis investigated the day lighting opportunities for

renovation of the INL facility, located in Idaho Falls, ID. The intent of

the study is to optimize top-lighting design strategies to daylight

the Conference Rooms and Lecture Hall. Our analysis indicates

that perimeter skylights will provide the best illumination levels

within the Lecture Hall. Perimeter day lighting takes advantage

of wall light washing which results in even illumination without

increased glare levels.

This analysis investigated day lighting and electric lighting strategies for Hawthorne Elementary School. First, a day lighting analysis was performed for the second story classrooms. Based on the results of the day lighting analysis, an electric lighting strategy was formalized that utilizes two banks of three lamp T5 high-output Finelite fl uorescent luminaires per classroom. An electric lighting analysis was then performed whereby luminaires were switched on when day lighting illumination levels are below 50 foot candles and switched off when levels are above 50 foot candles.

W o o d c r a f t

I have a strong interest in woodcraft. Over the past few years I have worked as carpenter, cabinet maker, and furniture maker. In the MSU Architecture Masters program I have had the opportunity to take furniture making class and am currently working on an independent woodcraft study that is focused on turning wooden bowls with the lathe. I aspire to always be working on a piece and hope that woodcraft is a part of my life forever.
