university of Nebraska Lincoln

I have recently graduated with a Bachelor’s in Science of Design from the University of Nebraska- Lincoln. I am currently seeking a full-time Summer internship that could help me to learn more about the field of Architecture while gaining real-world experience.

I am passionate about Residential Architecture; whether it be single- or multi-family projects and I enjoy playing with adjacencies while still allowing a floor plan to be efficient and functional.

I am interested in learning more about Zero Net Energy Design and other sustainability concepts that can remain within a budget but provide amazing performance results in terms of energy consumption.

After reviewing my portfolio, I hope that you will consider me a valuable addition to your team. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

ARCH 210: Elements of ArchitectureProfessor: David Karle Barcode, Parametric Profiling, Augmented Surface We were asked to create a unique barcode that was then interpreted into lines that were extruded and manipulated to create a parametric surface. We then had to create an augmented surface that interacted

with the original parametric surface.

ARCH 211: Fundamentals of DesignProfessor: Peter Olshavsky ivA Slice of HomeAs requested, this is a project to create an Accessory Dwelling Unit to be placed facing an alley in Lincoln, Nebraska. This unit was designed for a Millenial either still in College or just newly graduated. Located at 1508 Garfield St., this one bed/one bath honors the individual who is

more apt to biking or walking than driving.

ARCH 310: Fundamentals of Architectural DesignProfessor: Mark Hoistad(SUB)Urban InfillWe were given the opportunity to design a small apartment complex that would be located in the Wellington Greens neighborhood of Lincoln, Nebraska. For this project, it was necessary to take site into consideration and the class mapped out each contour during a site visit.

ARCH 311: Architectural Design: Ecological ContextProfessor: Nate KrugMeteorological Center and Field StationWe were invited to design the meteorological center to fit a triangular lot of land just North of the Assurity Center in Lincoln, Nebraska near UNL's City Campus. This would be an extension of Innovation Campus and would be both a place of research and work and a place for the scientists to live. It was expected for this building to be a site for elementary school field trips and so accommodations had to be made for bus traffic and parking.

ARCH 411: Architectural Design: Urban ContextProfessors: Tim Hemsath; Tim WentzZero Net Energy Ready Home and NeighborhoodCollaborators: Liz Szatko, Mackenzie Gibbens, Mike Belford, Adam Myers

Habitat for Humanity invited our joint studio of Architects and Construction Managers to design a house for them. The home must be flexible based on the site, zero net energy ready, but also user-friendly for both volunteers building it and for the homeowners living in it.

Zero Net Energy Strategies Used include:• South Facing Roof Slope

(for Solr Panel Application)

• Rain Water Collection• Solar Panel to Power Heat Pump

• Solar Powered Water Heater• Energy Star Appliances

Once the home was designed, we worked together to create a

masterplan of a neighborhood in North Omaha. Our group, Compass, based our plan on storm water management and

approached the ‘problem’ with a bottom-up mindset. The neighborhood features an elevated path along water drainage paths. Bioswales are plentiful on the site to help retain and filter storm water.

The new plan features 100 houses raising the density from 1.9

to 2.9 Houses/Acre.
