Sheltered by a riparian corridor and cascading slope, this water education center is designed to mimic the towering trees on-site in order to allow wildlife crossing and vegetation growth beneath and around the structure. Through its proximity to the creek and its shifting viewpoints, visitors are invited to hear, see, and connect to various parts of the land more intimately, while at the same time learning about the virtues and merits of water conservation.

Using programmatic and historical research methods, design a bodega 2.0 that reconnects community members with natural processes by making the division and sorting of waste hyper-visible. The intended impact is to encourage community members to be more mindful of their consumerism in order to live closer to a zero-waste lifestyle and preserve our natural ecosystems.

Using ethnographic research methods I created an individualized zero waste design solution for a pre-existing kitchen and for a particular user profile and house type.

Create a small and welcoming space that invites people who are passing by to enjoy a moment of respite away from the chaos of campus life and enjoy a view of the surrounding environment.

Learn how to use Auto Cad and complete accurate floor plans, sections, and detail drawings of a house of our choice.

In this project, the goal was to gain experience in working with a variety of different materials. By combining different types of materials with various volumes, weights, and colors, I was able to explore how to adjust, accommodate, and better my design to the constraints of my materials.

Create a well-functioning, stable, and beautiful chair that conveys a high level of craftsmanship and thoughtfulness. For my project I wanted to use sustainable materials so I worked to create a design that would seamlessly incorporate wasted plastic bags.

5-week research and design project that explored the key concepts of Taoism and analyzed them through watercolors and a light capsule.

In this project, the goal was to develop 3-dimensional models, sketches, and photographs that studied composition, order, pattern, and hierarchy. Throughout the design process I built twenty four 3”x3”x3” models, and four 6”x6”x6” models.

Upon investigating the cohesive and adhesive properties of water and its relation to the human body, I designed a rainwater harvesting hat that addresses the significance of reusing our water given historic drought conditions in Utah in 2021.
