Detail-driven in public, private, and Federal, commercial architectural design and construction
management, I have extensive experience and in-depth technical proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit
(BIM), Primavera P6, and Oracle, incorporating the IBC, universal design, and ADA codes. I offer
experience and qualification for preparing architectural conceptual designs, programming, space
planning, lighting design, interior design, and construction documentation (i.e. contracts, submittals,
specifications, scheduling). I also have experience incorporating Autodesk 360 and/or manually
producing architectural construction drawings and renderings.
I have an established aptitude for interacting with clients, prospective tenants, architects, engineers,
suppliers, and subcontractors to ensure construction documentation, contracts, and schedules
adhere to contractual obligations. I am well versed in a wide range of scheduling and construction
management software systems, technologies, and methods.
I have an excellent history of cultivating productive, professional relationships, leading to high levels
of client satisfaction and retention, culminating in a lucrative conclusion.
Thanking you in advance for your time and consideration,

Alachua's Bay House Bistro
Furniture Plan
Concept Statement
Creativity abounds in this first floor
restaurant incorporating a creative
eclectic Spanish architectural theme,
regenerating the concept made
popular in the 1920’s and 1930’s. An
upbeat color scheme will establish an
abstract motif throughout the open
floor footprint.
The walls will be completed with a knocked down
Spanish texture, faux painted, and glazed in an
attempt of continuing with the imaginative artistic
composition of the space. The interior color scheme
will revolve around earth tone hues.
Located in Gainesville, Florida in an existing 3,300
square foot building on 1313 University Avenue, will
be owned and operated by Jane McGrath and
Phyllis Lewis. The interior offers a state-of-the-art
functional space not only stimulating the owner’s
love of cooking, baking, and socializing, but will also
generate an inviting scenario for its dining guests.
Juxtaposed to the dining room will be the “Blue Surf Lounge” capable of serving not only cocktails but
specialty house appetizers, while customers listen to subtle music. The open ceiling over the semi-
private dining room will incorporate natural lighting with ambient recessed fixtures in an ornate
hanging array of ornate elements from the ceiling giving the appearance of free floating.

A Cuyahoga County Sustainable Neighborhood Development Project
The success of Cleveland’s Bay
House Bistro will be evident, not only
through the understanding of
historical reuse, but also incorporating
the city of Cleveland’s culture and
local cuisine.
Along with a historical Spanish style architecture, integrating serpentine soffits with the existing historical
elements of the Chrysler building, arches over doors, prominent windows, and antiqued stucco walls, all
factors which will enhance the overall experience while dining at
“Cleveland’s Bay House Bistro”
15

Furniture Plan
The success of this
project was entirely
dependent on the
ability to listen and
understand what is
important to the
clients, while
appreciating the
opportunity to
incorporate creativity
to fulfil contractual
obligations.
Life safety, programming, interior design, color palettes, furnishings, art and accessories were all incorporated in
creating the overall themed motif of the restaurant. More often than not, creating an interior presents significant
challenges for the designer; elements that acknowledge and emulate the theme must be integrated in a cohesive,
comfortable design that is satiating to the clients. The programming must assimilate in a way that allows both
functionality and form to coexist in harmony without one dominating the other.

“The Raven”
Bay Village
Art Gallery

Evening Sail” by Tommy Cherry
The project “The Raven” Bay Village Art Gallery
consists of a leased 2,982 square feet tenant space
located on the first floor of an existing historical
building in Bay Village, Boston, MA. The Raven
offers an excellent opportunity to explore historical
preservation and adaptive reuse in developing an
upbeat art gallery.
19
The Raven will offer great works by well known and
lesser known artists, like up and coming Boston
native, “Tommy Cherry” and support a wide range of
tastes, to satiate every art appetite, and introduce the
guest to a varied range of options in terms of price,
subject matter, size, artist and media.
The neighborhood is directly adjacent to Park Square and Boston’s
theater district and is known as the birthplace of the famous
American poet and short story writer Edgar Allan Poe.

As interior designers it is important to recognize the
client's own cultural diversity level and integrate this
with today's current styles and design trends.
Researching and understanding genealogy as it relates
to different cultures, religious practices and lifestyles is
an important element when tailoring specifically to an
individual client and processing this information from
the client to determine their life-style needs; daily
routine rituals, entertaining dynamics, religious
customs, cultural draw and beliefs, dreams, and
expectations.

XENO ENVIRONMENTALLY DESIGNED
The newly renovated office space will have
an influential and psychological effect to
each and every occupant by incorporating
specific aspects of color, shape, texture,
sound, light, and ceiling heights, creating a
sense of place, such that the workplace has
a unique character that engenders a sense
of pride, purpose, and dedication for XENO
workers.

The interior aesthetics will incorporate a creative brand with a motivating theme promoting XENO's mission to their
upscale, progressive, and traditional clothing store clients. The programming will be completed considering all building
codes, ADA standards, universal design, way finding, and safety regulations. Common use areas such as the
breakroom, restrooms, conference rooms, and record storage areas were located in the center of the floor plan,
allowing the perimeter areas to take full advantage of daylight zoning and incorporating direct, diffused and//or reflected
daylight to supplement the lighting demands. (Benefits include greater satisfaction with the interior environment for
building occupants and lower ongoing energy costs for XENO.

The design concept was accomplished
through the process of analyzing
programmatic information and creating
conceptual direction to establish an
association between spatial volume and
surface treatments.
The floor plan is not only functional and
esthetically designed but takes into
consideration important human factors. The
kitchen/dining room depicts a well-designed
space for creating meals and as a social
gathering area for family functions or
entertaining clients/guests.

Hand Rendered Light Fixture
Focal points were established in each room to draw attention and evoke
interest while occupying the space. For example skylights designed over
the exterior fenestrations were incorporated to elongate the physical height.
