Interior Design
Worked with several brands such as Steak n Shake and Sunglass Hut (Luxottica). Responsibilities included developing floor plans, working on construction documents in AutoCad, and Photoshop renderings. I also assisted designers and the brand manager with research and developing image strategy for each project.
Worked with several brands such as Evian, Delta, Diet Coke, and Mad Men. Responsibilities included developing floor plans, developing branding and experiential marketing strategies, wall elevations, graphic elements, and setting up print files and corresponding mechanical files. The main focus was on graphic elements, which included such work as Facebook and Twitter promos, event invitations, event signage, and additional branded collateral, such as drink cards and coasters.
Responsibilities included upkeep and reorganization of materials library, answering telephones, setting up meetings and appointments with vendors and representatives, assisting designers on finishes for projects, and providing graphic design help in Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
Responsibilities included working on several different project teams in different design phases from schematic design to construction document phase. I also assisted designers with the research and selection of finishes for projects, developed schematic environmental graphics for wall elevations, produced finish plans, schedules, and other construction documents in Revit, developed client presentations in InDesign, and served as the primary contact for the materials library, updating, organizing, and scheduling all vendor presentations.

Shoot around, sink a three, and see how LA fans’ stats compare to the Lakers.
For Sephora, it’s time to get ahead with a saavy pop-up. To not only up Sephora’s street cred but strut their stuff for fashion mavens, beauty connoisseurs, marketing mavens & elaborate editors. All trendsetters, all here. The impact.. the newest, the latest, the greatest. The most buzzed about beauty trends in the world.
Before the season five premiere of Mad Men, AMC and the cast sponsored an event for the media and advertiser’s, simply callled the “Mad Men Advertiser’s Party.” Held at the Oak Room at the Plaza Hotel, this event focused on a special mixologist bar, whereexpert mixologists showed the guests how to make several classic Mad Men drinks.
University of Cincinnati’s Chapter of Engineers Without Borders consists of engineers, designers, problem solvers, innovators, and thinkers, who come together to design, develop, and implement sustainable solutions to humanitarian issues in developing countries. As of 2013, UC’s chapter has three projects: (1) Water Distribution in Otho Abwao, Kenya; (2) Schoolhouse in Burere, Tanzania; and (3) Water Distribution in Nyambogo, Tanzania.
La Escuela de Creativas Ciencias is a focus option public school in San José, Costa Rica. The school will promote, stimulate, and encourage students by providing a hands-on and interactive educational experience. At ECC, we strive to foster discovery type learning, by allowing students to interact with the physical world and their peers. By focusing on the creative sciences and technology, ECC will cultivate students who are independent, creative, and problem solvers, ready for the constant evolution of the globalization of the economy.

Just as the craziness begins to die, it’s back to the grind. Two weeks post fashion week, and it’s already time to think about next fashion week. We’ve seen polka dots, edgy nails, and intense lips--we need new. We want pink shorts suits, bold, metallic eyes, and wine stained lips. Who’s behind all these trends? The crème de la crème of beauty--and we’re curating all their insight to Paris.
Colette, at no. 213 Rue Saint-Honoré, is at the heart of the fashion and luxury district of Paris. It’s the place for all things cool--high tech gadgets, beauty products, music, quirky gifts, unique and hip fashions, and even a bar with over one hundred varieties of water. The swanky store is EDGY, creative, and inspiring; the perfect formula for a Sephora savvy soiree.

For every 100 students who enter first grade, only 88 continue onto forth grade.Of those 88, only 29 will graduate high school.Of those 29 students, only 6 will graduate without repeating a year.
The brand of Escuela de Creativas Ciencias (ECC) will be a new model of education in Costa Rica. Incorporating the Ministry of Education’s guidelines for public education, addressing the globalization in Costa Rica, and aiming to combat the public education crisis, the ECC brand aims to inspire, stimulate, and motivate primary school-age children in San Pedro, Costa Rica.
The ECC experience must be different than traditional schools in Costa Rica. Using the seven-point curriculum module (See Figure 1), students of ECC will be exposed to non-traditional learning methodologies while still adhering to and accomplishing standards set forth by Costa Rica’s Ministry of Education. Combining an ideal classroom with interactive exhibit spaces, students will be surrounded by learning opportunies in their homerooms as well as circulation spaces. Students will experience learning, students will have fun while learning, and students will foster a life-long passion for learning.

BRAND POSITIONING
Escuela de Creativas Ciencias (ECC) will promote, stimulate, and encourage students by providing a hands-on and interactive educational experience. At ECC, we strive to foster discovery type learning, by allowing students to interact with the physical world and their peers. By focusing on the creative sciences and technology, ECC will cultivate students who are independent, creative, and problem solvers, ready for the constant evolution of the globalization of the economy.
As science and technology take a larger presence in the global economy and as larger companies move offices to Costa Rica, it is pertinent that at ECC, we give students the necessary tools to excel in these intense labor and market demands. At ECC, we use a multiage educational system integrated with constructivist learning strategies to create a child-centric environment. These strategies provide children with multi-dimensional skills that prepare them to excel in future studies and well into adulthood.
Some things are easier to learn by doing than by seeing or listening. At ECC, we believe discovery is the key to learning. By moving and doing, learning can happen in a fun and active environment.
Children at ECC learn by exploring the world that surrounds them. This sense of exploration is reinforced by fun, interactive elements within the school.
The static, rows of desks facing forward classroom is a thing of the past. ECC’s classrooms are dynamic, reconfiguring and changing to fit the needs of the curriculum. Circulation outside the classroom is not simply a space for walking from here to there, but a space to learn, reinforcing ideas taught in the classroom.

for each classroom at ECC. The butterfly metaphor reinforces the notion of change and growth in ECC. The first and second grade (1&2) classroom is appropriately called Oruga, or Caterpillar; the third and forth grade (3&4) classroom is called Crisalida, or Pupa; and the fifth and sixth (5&6) classroom is called Mariposa, or Butterfly, respectively. These icons are used as a floor graphic in the entry vestible to each classroom and can also be on signage, or wayfinding.

The primary objective of STS-75 was to carry the Tethered Satellite System Reflight (TSS-1R) into orbit and to
deploy it spaceward on a conducting tether. The mission also flew the United States Microgravity Payload
(USMP-3) designed to investigate materials science and condensed matter physics. The TSS-1R mission was a
reflight of TSS-1 which was flown onboard Space Shuttle Atlantis on STS-46 in July/August 1992. The Tether
Satellite System circled the Earth at an altitude of 296 kilometers, placing the tether system within the rarefied
electrically charged layer of the atmosphere known as the ionosphere. STS-75 mission scientist hoped to deploy
the tether to a distance of 20.7 kilometres (12.9 mi). Over 19 kilometers of the tether were deployed before the
tether broke. It remained in orbit for a number of weeks and was easily visible from the ground, appearing
something like a small but surprisingly bright fluorescent light traveling through the sky.

Mission Specialist Wendy B. Lawrence
Mission Specialist Franklin R. Chang-Diaz
Mission Specialist Janet L. Kavandi
Mission Specialist Valery Victorovitch Ryumin
STS-91 marked the final Shuttle/Mir Docking Mission. This Phase 1 Program was a precursor to the International
Space Station maintaining a continuous American presence in space and developing the procedures and hardware
required for an international partnership in space. The mission was the first to use the super lightweight external
tank (SLWT) which was the same size, at 154 feet (47 m) long and 27 feet (8.2 m) in diameter, as the external tank
used on previous launches, but 7,500 pounds (3,400 kg) lighter. The tank was made of an aluminum lithium alloy
and the tank's structural design had also been improved making it 30 percent stronger and 5 percent less dense.
The walls of the redesigned hydrogen tank were machined in an orthogonal waffle-like pattern, providing more
strength and stability than the previous design. These improvements would later provide additional payload
capacity to the International Space Station.

Pilot Paul Lockhart,
Mission Specialist Franklin Chang-Diaz
Mission Specialist Philippe Perrin
STS-111, in addition to providing supplies, rotated the crews aboard the International Space Station, exchanging
the three Expedition 4 members (1 Russian, 2 American) for the three Expedition 5 members (2 Russian, 1
American). The Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) carried experiment racks and three stowage and resupply
racks to the station. The mission also installed a component of the Canadarm2 called the Mobile Base System
(MBS) to the Mobile Transporter (MT) (which was installed during STS-110). This gave the mechanical arm the
capability to "inchworm" from the U.S. Lab fixture to the MSS and travel along the Truss to work sites.
