"Of all the paths you take in life, make sure a few of them are dirt." - Anonymous
![Page 3: Landscape Architecture Portfolio](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042522/559cbb1a1a28abd4558b4842/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
With our lives in constant motion we
have many decisions to make and
various paths to choose. If we opt for
what is comfortable and familiar we
often maintain our status quo. But
if we decide to venture toward the
unknown, then we open ourselves up to
opportunities to truly expand our worlds.
For me, designed landscapes have
always provide the most beautiful
and soulful divergences. It is from
these most personal experiences that
my desire to become a Landscape
Architect arises. I want to design
places and spaces for others to
experience their own divergences.
To feel how a busy mind can be quieted in a shady urban pocket park; how new possibilities arise in a child who first sees the ocean from a waterfront promenade; or how an inspiration for a backyard water feature unexpected comes to a gardener in the Moroccan Desert.
In my life in deciding which paths
I will chose, I will most likely opt
for the dirt ones, for the unlimited
possibilities of where they may lead me.

Urban Waterfront Redevelopment
Masters Thesis
To integrate Charleston’s maritime and post-industrial heritage into an ecologically responsible and sustainable
redesign of its urban waterfront.
Design Goal
Charleston, SC
With its naturally deep port and ideal location favorable to North Atlantic trade winds, Charleston was settled in 1663 as a British colonial trading port. For over 300 years, Charleston’s waterfront has been the catalyst for its economy.
Union Pier, located on Cooper River on the east side of the Charleston peninsula,
continues to operate at the center of global
commerce and trade, serving as a bulk cargo
facility and the city’s cruise ship terminal.
The scope of this redevelopment totals 50
acres and encompasses Union Pier, which is
managed by the South Carolina Ports Authority.

Community Revitalization
Community Studio - Year 2Designed in partnership with Christine Rollins
To revitalize the community by providing residents with pleasant and safe access to spaces and places to recreate, garden, shop, and interact and to link the Sterling
Neighborhood to nearby Greenville’s CBD.
Design Goal
Encourage pedestrian activity by creating passive and active recreation spaces along new neighborhood greenways, a tree-lined retail boulevard, and centrally located town square.
Improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety with traffic calming measures, bike lanes, and sidewalk enhancements and streamline vehicular traffic with road realignments that connect to Greenville’s street grid.
Design Strategy
Once a thriving African American community, the Sterling Neighborhood faces the challenges of a decreasing population, a lack of community cohesiveness, rising crime
rates, and abandoned and derelict properties.

Student Courtyard Renovation
Designed in partnership with Marissa DiLoretofor Clemson University Student Affairs
A peaceful yet playful oasis for students to lounge in hammocks, to hang out with friends, to surf the interent, or to watch an outdoor evening movie.
Design Goal
Create a comfortable microclimate with tree canopies, tables with umbrellas, sail shades, and patio heaters. Soften the space with wood decking, bamboo and grasses, green screening, and hammocks. Increase hours of usability at night with lighting and programming. Provide ADA accessibility with ramps incorporated into the decking.
Design Strategy
Clemson, SC
A student union should be designed as a place for people to gather, relax, and interact; as a space to take a break from the hecticness of collegiate life. The enclosed courtyard of Clemson University’s Student Union feels disconnected and uninviting. Visually separated from the campus, the space is dominated by brick hardscaping
and lacks adequate ADA accessibility.

Tiger Band Plaza Custom Benches
Designed for DP3 Architects
Design and generate CAD drawings of two
custom teak and granite benches to fit the
radii of the curves of the pergola. Placed
under the vine covered steel structure,
the benches create places for visitors to
sit and watch the band practice, shaded
from the heat of the afternoon sun.
Design Project
Clemson, SC
Clemson’s Tiger Band Practice Field has been recently redesigned as Spirit Point at Tiger
Band Plaza and is anchored by an S-curved
pergola. The Tiger Band can be heard from the plaza across campus when it practices in the afternoons during the school year.

CLEMSON UNIVERSITY
Clemson UniversitySite Design Guidelines
Project Goal
Clemson, SC
Clemson University’s Site Design Guidelines describe the procedures, standards, processes, and implementation for the design of campus improvements that reinforce and
maintain a unified visual campus character.
To edit, revise, reformat, and update the university’s current Site Design Guidelines which were drafted in 2001. New additions included a Bicycle Systems Section and an Appendix with Product Specifications for Campus Standard Products and Materials.
With an end goal of creating an accessible resource for those involved in planning for change on the campus, I embedded hyperlinks to further reference detailed information and linked the entire document to Clemson University’s Facilities website.
Adopted by President Barker and Clemson’s Administrative Council in June of 2012.
