RESEARCH


FABRICATION (WIP)


I am a fourth year student at the University of Tennessee within their Bachelor of Architecture program. 

Currently, I am working as a research assistant with Professor Mark Stanley on researching speculative futures in the Oak Ridge region and am a part of Space and Building Fabrication for the College of Architecture and Design at the university.
My current interests are in urban planning and urban zoning and how to make city’s better for the future through the use of architecture. Programs that have helped me with this have been working with the Civic Design Center during my study abroad in Nashville and using various GIS software to analyze and act. Other interests include the creation of handheld fabrication models and scene building in various render software.

Ascension Court

Integrating Various Architectural Systems into  Elevated “Starter Homes” for Knoxville Families

Elevating what can be a starter home, Ascension Court blends living, working, and outdoor space. Raised residential units wrap around a stepped courtyard that creates an open yet tranquil space. Tucked below the courtyard, a restaurant space adjoins a covered arcade made for creators and markets. Artisan residents are able to display their work in a gallery and do businessin conference spaces.
