As a Project Manager with the City and County of San Francisco Recreation and Park Department, I have successfully managed projects large and small, with a combined project value of over $110M. Projects such as the Helen Diller Civic Center Playgrounds, the Bi-Rite Street Cafe at Civic Center, the Garfield Pool and Recreation Center, and the Portsmouth Square renovation project have been technically complex and politically sensitive, with a high degree of involvement by governmental agencies and the public. I have successfully navigated many delicate situations, such as obtaining Historic Preservation Commission approvals, reaching community consensus on the future design of Chinatown’s “living room,” and rebuilding trust with communities that had lost faith in the department. I am especially proud of the relationships I have built as a result—with city agencies, community members, donors, non-profits, contractors, and elected officials.I joined this team because I wish to bring lasting and impactful change to our communities. Being able to make positive contributions to our city’s public spaces has been incredibly rewarding.

I taught a graduate-level architectural design studio during the Fall 2015 term. The subject of architecture as an integrative and transformative instrument was examined through the lens of the architectural promenade, embodied perception, and material transformation. In addition, coursework dealt with issues of form, structure, tectonics, building systems, as well as modes of representation, formal analysis and design methodology. This studio placed an emphasis on programming, siting, materials, and landscape design.
