Background InfluencesMy passion for design extends back to my earliest memories. Throughout my life designing landscapes has been a favorite pastime. From spending hours working on model zoos, train sets, and dioramas as a child; tending my backyard pond and gardens as a teen; and creating horticultural designs in my early adulthood, molding the landscape to create something new has always been a primary interest.
Plants and horticulture have always been a specific passion of mine. I largely taught myself to identify and design with plants of the northeast, years before I received any formal training. This self-accrued knowledge earned me a position as a Parks Department gardener for the City of New York. With this innate interest and ability, years of experience designing and installing plantings, and now several years of formal education as a Landscape Architect and Horticulturist, my ability to perform as a horticulturally minded designer is well-honed.
I believe that plants are an integral part of any well-balanced landscape, and help to provide value for site users at all trophic levels. Plants appeal to our sense of beauty and provide shade for human users, create food and shelter for animals, and can help act as biological conduits for the exchange of genetic information between adjoining landscapes and natural areas. By keeping these various functions in mind, we as designers can stay true to our vision and a clients desire while also ensuring that our design remains functional as part of larger ecological systems.
In urban areas, designed outdoor environments help to highlight our often obscured connection to the natural world, and act as integral links to the greater ecological systems around us. As a long-time resident of the Hudson Valley and New York City region, I have a strong interest and knowledge base in this areas ecology, and how designed landscapes can function as integral parts of this diverse and complicated system.

Ecological Design | Rochester, NY
The Beebe Power Plant in Rochester sits at the bottom of a gorge and waterfall at the city center. It represents the citys industrial history but is currently contaminated and off-limits, thus creating a barrier between the river and the citys nearby residents. This design seeks to reintegrate the site with the ecosystem and the city systems. By reutilizing existing infrastructure we can highlight the past while providing foundations for new growth and biodiversity on site. By engaging the community in site rehabilitation, education about site contamination, and the creation of new levels of inhabitable space, we help reconnect the city to this impressive natural corridor.

NOMA INlet Fostering Ecological CapitalReal Estate Development and Design | Washington D.C.
Created through a joint effort with students in Cornells real estate program, this project seeks to create a dynamic urban neighborhood with improved sustainability and ecological function. INlet is a planned development which provides important local amenities as well as retail and public space, drawing users from around the city. Leveraging the ability to create this space from the ground up, the design focuses on water conservation and creating the potential for ecological exchange with adjacent natural areas and plant communities. By greening this urban development deliberately and starting to unplug it from the combined sewer system of Washington our team created a neighborhood which is good for the environment and has green cachet.

Masters of Professional Studies Final ProjectWoody Plants for Stormwater Retention Practices | Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Regions
This pamphlet gives an overview of planted stormwater retention and infiltration practices and their construction and maintenance. The bulk of the work is concerned with an extensive plants list which outlines the woody shrub species and cultivars appropriate for use in said practices. The pamphlet explores the use of shrubs rather than herbaceous plants, due to the decreased labor and maintenance associated with woody plants. In addition, the pamphlet focuses on plants that tolerate a gradient of flooding and drought as these practices are often dry for a majority of the time. Clear images and language make it useful and accessible laymen and professionals alike.

The Study
A portion of the information here is based on a three-month study in Ithaca, N.Y. conducted by Horticulture Masters of Professional Studies student Ethan M. Dropkin under the guidance of Cornell Universitys Urban Horticulture Institue director, Dr. Nina Bassuk.
The study focused on testing the flood and drought tolerances of six shrub species, all included in this pamphlet. The species (Amorpha fruticosa, Hippophae rhamnoides, Salix arenaria, Salix purpurea, Shepherdia argentea, Spiraea tomentosa) showed tolerance of both

Woody shrubs provide low-maintenance, attractive cover for stormwater retention and infiltration practices.
Planted stormwater retention and infiltration practices are important for reducing runoff and maximizing green space in urban areas. While a wide variety of herbaceous plants such as Soft Rush (Juncus effusus), Swamp Milkweed (Asclepias incarnata), and Joe-Pye Weed (Eutrochium spp., formerly Eupatorium spp.) are often successfully used in these spaces, they can present maintenance issues because of the need to annually cut back dead foliage and stems. Utilizing woody plants decreases the need for additional seasonal maintenance while successfully adding aesthetic and functional vegetation to stormwater retention practices.
What is Stormwater?
Stormwater is rain or snowmelt which flows over the ground and does not directly infiltrate into the soil. Historically stormwater runoff only occurred during large storm events when the rate of rainfall or snowmelt was greater than the rate at which water could be absorbed into the soil. With the advent of wide-scale development and urbanization, the area of impervious surface in the US is approximately 43,000 sq. mi. with an additional 400 sq. mi. being added each year (Schueler and Holland,1994). Increases in artificial impervious surfaces like roads, roofs, sidewalks and parking lots have created a corresponding increase in stormwater runoff. In addition to an increase in impervious surfaces, soils, which can become compacted due to

Cornell Agricultural Quad Turning Space Into PlaceTheory &Design | Ithaca, NY
This highly theoretical project seeks to consolidate the teaching and experimental greenhouse space used by the College of Agriculture and Life Science on the Quad itself. The goal is to bring the biological research of the college to the forefront and make it accessible. In addition these greenhouses create a corridor along one of the most highly used routes to Mann Library which increases the multi-seasonal use of the Quad. In addition stormwater catchments and topography help to encourage new connections between the quad, the surrounding biota and the people that use the quad throughout the year. In short it turns a space to pass through into a place to stay.

ILR Courtyard Expanding Cornells Living ClassroomRestoration and Planting | Ithaca, NY
In rehabilitating the ILR Courtyard we were faced with a variety of challenges and opportunities. The greatest opportunity of this site was the fact that, being a courtyard, it allowed us to utilize out of zone plants, improving the value of Cornells living horticultural classroom. Issues of drainage, soil replacement, and graduation day tent placement all had to be addressed and ultimately became assets. Drainage was improved by creating new pervious paving seating areas. The need for soil replacement in planting areas afforded us the opportunity to create uniquely specialized planting palettes for both well-drained and acid soils. The need for a tent area created a central lawn framed by mixed tree and shrub beds with seasonal appeal.

Hudson Rail Yards Drawing from Regional InspirationsMaster Planning and Design | New York, NY
The Hudson Rail Yards are one of the few large areas with potential for new building left in Manhattan. With its connection to the northern end of the High Line, the 7 Subway line extension, and its adjacency to both the Hudson River Greenway and the new Hudson Park and Boulevard by MVVA, this site is primed to become a nexus of activity. Drawing from regional inspirations, this project leverages the geology, microclimates, and natural history of the Hudson Highlands to help create a unique and area appropriate design. This design highlights the citys complicated relationship with the natural world it has historically overlaid, but now helps to shape and change.

Clark Hall Construction DetailsRe-designing the Roof-Deck and Inner Courtyard | Ithaca, NY
Focused on updating the exterior and surroundings of an outdated Brutalist style building on Cornells campus, the main concern was how to design and bring users onto a roof deck located both at and slightly below grade. In addition a goal was to make the roof ADA accessible using ramp systems. One included creating a floating ramp pinned into the existing retaining wall, which brought users to the roof surface but did not itself rest or put weight on the roof. This project was particularly useful for gaining an understanding of creating both accessible design and green roof projects, two of the cornerstones of modern landscape architecture.

Re-invigorating the Statler Hotel Entrance and Physical Sciences Building | Ithaca, NY
These plans represent only two of a host of planting plans created while at Cornell. As with the plantings shown here some of these plans were installed, while others were only proposed. Regardless, the design guidelines they followed were always clear: site appropriate plants; four-season interest; low-maintenance, pest and disease free selections; and ecologically functional, aesthetically pleasing designs. The Statler Circle plan was a rejuvenation of the main entrance to Cornells premier hotel and was constructed. The proposed Clark Hall planting sought to bring higher value to an under-utilized roof-space and inner courtyard.

From childhood, one of the ways I have always connected with the landscape has been through observation and interpretation of the animals and plants that reside, inform, and create it. In more recent years Ive taken to capturing this interconnection of living things and landscape through digital photography. My hope being that I gain a greater understanding of the larger systems of the landscape by literally framing pieces of it. By observing life and landscape at a variety of scales. I seek to gain a greater understanding of the whole and have that understanding inform my work as a landscape designer.
