Objective: To design a promotional trade show widget promoting a new line of biodegradable plastics. I worked with a fellow engineering student at Boston University and was advised by company representatives on features and cost. The result was a series of LED illuminated interlocking blocks that form an impactful display wall. As the blocks are given away, the display biodegrades providing an opportunity to engage the customer on the brands key attribute. Paired with a low cost dock, the blocks reilluminate on the customers desk. Key design challenges were cost, electrical design, and creating a latch that had maximum exibility. For this project, I contributed the conceptual framework, renderings, and worked with my partner on technical details and costing. Our team exceded project expectations and considered the booth environment as part of the product design.

The integrated project is a key component of the BU MBA program -- requiring rst year teams to synthesize the core curriculum. Assigned the packaged meats industry, we chose to propose acquiring and revitalizing the Louis Rich brand which is now owned by Oscar Mayer/Kraft Foods. We felt the brand had decreasing importance to Kraft due to overlapping products. I contributed to all aspects of the
project
(nancial,
strategic,
and marketing) but especially helped brainstorm brand and marketing methods and produced visual content.
The proposed logo is color independent and emphasizes turkey rather than what appears to be non-descript meat slices.
We chose all natural as a key attribute and developed retail and guerilla campaigns around 2!8!'4&)/P85%K!!I<%!R8)14&4R821!829! the idea of Make A Sandwich and print campaigns emphasiz16!1/!1801%!829!1/!899414/28==6! ing All Natural.

As a capstone at Boston Architectural College, I was assigned a dorm and academic facility for the school. The site bridges over half of the Massachusetts Turnpike and the citys western train corridor. The resulting building was informed by the sites unique structural limitations and an exploration of voyerism in urban interstitial spaces. A diverse student population required housing for families as well as traditional students. Student housing is located in the tall cantelievered structure. Academic and public functions are in the ground level volume. The modular layout of the student housing borrows from my experience as a research laboratory designer, adapting to changing student needs.

I worked on primarily two projects while at Neshamkin French - as job captain of an urban inll project and as job captain, designer, and construction administrator of an adaptive reuse of a downtown shoe factory in Stoneham, MA. Both were primarily residential. I also assisted with other urban and adaptive reuse projects.
303 Columbus is a complex project on a tight urban site in Bostons South End. I joined the project during design development at Neshamkin French Architects and acted as job captain for the last iteration of the document set. Maximizing ceiling height and a late change to cast-in-place concrete structure from steel made coordination of all of the building systems challenging. The section cut below is of a new construction annex that I designed as part of the Stoneham project. I researched zoning and building codes to maximize land use. It has 4 residential units and two commercial spaces. A connection to the third oor deck shared with the main building is provided.
