l andscape arch i tec tu reThis portfolio contains examples of the
design process and completion of a variety of projects. Beyond the graphics I am a talented professional with a LEED accreditation in new
construction working towards a bachelors degree in landscape architecture. I strive
towards innovation with an eye on practicality. I have much to offer any company, organization
or individual that seeks to utilize my knowledge and skills. With this in mind I expect to
also continue learning, taking direction and developing my design knowledge and abilities.

ENGINEERING
Through experience as a student and intern working for a fi rm I have developed
my knowledge of project engineering. I have had the opportunity to work
on construction drawings such as, but not limited to, site grading and drainage, stormwater calcuation and
pipe sizing, construction secton details for pavement
and walls, road alignment, layout plans, detail plans,
and planting plans. The experience has taught me
to be an innovative yet practical designer that
looks to push the edges using new techniques and
technology.

CC MARKETING
As a student I have had the opportunity to work as
the Ball State University Career Center Marketing
Assistant. This experience has given me insight into the creative and forward
thinking required in order to promote a business
or organization and give it the competitive edge. I was able to learn and
offer suggestions in how to set the organization apart
and gain clients. I also organized and managed an
aspect of the social media marketing component which was the Career
Center Facebook fan page.
