Candidate for Master's Degree in City Planning
Welcome,
This site is still being designed, and will eventually become a place where teachers, colleagues, friends, and family can visit to learn what I am working on and the direction my interests are taking. For myself, I hope it will become a tool by which to organize my interests and ideas while allowing me to develop web-design skills.
The site is organized in two ways: the navigation bar at the top will direct you to various destinations of interest, and the bar below will signify where those sites fit into a broader organizational framework based on the themes of Vision, Action, and Analysis.
As a City Planning student, one of my goals is to integrate academic and design inquiries to gain a more comprehensive understanding of city form and function. I believe I must develop my ability to see, to act, and to understand (analyze) in order to achieve this goal, and I hope that my work will reflect that process of development.
All post-undergraduate academic and professional work will eventually be housed under "Projects." I hope to provide links to some undergraduate work through the resume page. "Interests" will showcase independent activities that do not directly relate to city planning but that influence my academic work nonetheless.
Enjoy the site, and let me know if you think of improvements by visiting the "Contact" page and sending me email. Thanks!
