Landscape Architect Designer and Assistant Project Manager specializing in design and theory, horticulture and planting design, stormwater management, grading, and construction documentation and administration. I also hold advanced skills in graphics and document creation and production.Currently located in Washington, D.C., I began my Landscape Architecture career after graduating with honors from the nationally ranked Penn State program in 2014. I received numerous design awards for stormwater management and design excellence. I've also studied abroad in New Zealand at Lincoln University in Canterbury, where I gained knowledge in ecotourism and revitalizing urban cores post-natural disasters. Since starting my career in DC, I've spearheaded production and provided management assistance for multiple DC and Maryland public school projects, mixed-housing projects, and vibrant public space projects, while also managing county-wide stormwater management projects with the Clean Water Partnership in PG County. My career mission is to integrate landscape architecture and environmental psychology theory to enhance the physical and psychological interactions between people and the environment in order to instill environmental stewardship and reinforce the value of resource management.
