Work Experience
Kenosha Country Club May 2004-August 2008 At Kenosha Country Club I was a caddie and bag room attendant. Through this job I have obtained many good people skills by spending large amounts of time with a single client. I know that I can talk to and get along with anyone and am never afraid too approach someone who has a problem.
Address: 500 13th Street, Kenosha, Wi 53403

Woodman’s Food Markets June 2009-September 2009 Through working at Woodman’s I was able to develop a very good work ethic. Because of a strict late policy I was able to train myself to become a better worker, to never be tardy, and to work hard on the job.
Address: 1745 120th Ave. Kenosha, Wi 53142

Action Territory June 2009-September 2009 At Action Territory I learned many new skills concerning managing people. I was put in charge of large parties and groups of children. With this I feel that I can handle anyone who has a question about an Apple product and will be able to manage this problem in a very efficient way.

SHIELDS. FALL 2009
p r o g r a m : design either a bas-
cilica or a stoa linear market
place that coordinates with the
park located south of the site.
s o l u t i o n : with the notions that the main dilemma of this project was to design a mar-
ket place that had a southern focus on the park, i felt that a stoa was the best choice
for this project. the stoa almost becomes an arrow pointing at the park located directly
south. i also incorporated skylights to rooms that need to be day lit but yet cannot
have direct sunlight because of the fresh produce.

SHIELDS. FALL 2009
p r o g r a m : design a park using
one of the linear design projects
as an influence on your design.
with a heavy emphasis on
photomontage.
s o l u t i o n : for my park design i took the geometry of the sky lights on the roof of
my stoa in order to produce a pattern of planters and ponds that creates an order
to the park. one key aspect of the park is that it has a pond filtration system
which in the end creates an excellent feet cleansing pond.

SHIELDS. FALL 2009
p r o g r a m : design either a
courtyard or a cloister mar-
ketplace that created a space
that reflected the park.
s o l u t i o n : in order to create more interesting spaces i found that designing a cloister
market would be the best decision. i started with the general idea of having an indoor/
outdoor square of circulation hallway which surrounds the courtyard, and then moved to
design the outer four buildings that make up the cloister.

SHIELDS. FALL 2009
p r o g r a m : design a new facade
for an art gallery entirely
basing the project around the
golden rectangle and its pro-
portions.
s o l u t i o n : the main concept behind this particular facade design is that it is com-
pletely dynamic. the panels that initially make up the facade can move and create
interesting shadows for the customers walking into the gallery. the panels then in
the end open up to form different golden sections located randomly on the facade.

p r o g r a m : create a new work zone and
living quarters for the milwuaukee fire
department, and to also develop exhibition
spaces for a museum to the public.
s o l u t i o n : instead of thinking about this project in layers i decided that the way
to create the most interesting spaces was to take divide the public and private
spaces vertically rather that horizontally. so i took all of the private spaces and
placed them into an abstract boat shaped rendition along the north wall of the
interior.

ZELL. SPRING 2010
p r o g r a m : design a new cafe/com-
munity center for lake park entirely
basing your design off of the ideas
of the current lake park designer:
Frederick Law Olmsted.
s o l u t i o n : instead of designing a large monumental object in the middle of the park i
decided to design a building by playing with the land and creating a valley-like court-
yard in the middle to provide day lighting. also by creating an extention of the park
gave way to new man-made possibilities for the roof such as two foot high solid trans-
lucent glass skylights that pose as benches and also interesting glowing blocks at
night.
