I began my architectural career as an intern in a 10 person firm with a focus on hospitality, restaurant, and residential projects. I worked directly with the principal owner and the lead project manager for the duration of the three years of employment. This role focused on the core competencies needed to complete the bulk of the Intern Development Process with emphasis on schematic design, design development, construction document production, and construction administration. In my third year at Gonzalez Architects I took on an extra assignment in the preparation of project visualizations and presentations utilizing Revit, 3DS Max, VRay, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, and Premiere Pro. I completed numerous design presentations and several video and animation packages over the course of one year. Major projects of note include the complete renovation and expansion of The Casa Marina and Reach Resorts located in Key West, Florida, collaboration of the interior design for the Hotel Bel Air Spa, and the renovation of several Hilton Hotels located across the state of Florida.
