La pandemia de COVID-19 ha tenido un impacto significativo en la economía mundial y las vidas de las personas. Muchos países han impuesto medidas de confinamiento que han cerrado negocios y escuelas, y han pedido a la gente que se quede en casa tanto como sea posible para frenar la propagación del virus. A medida que los países comienzan a reabrir gradualmente, los expertos advierten que es probable que se produzcan nuevos brotes a menos que se realicen pruebas generalizadas y se implementen sistemas de rastreo de contactos para identificar rá
You can go to Redbox if you just have a sudden idea when you walk through a supermarket. You can drive to the blockbuster shop with your mum for a family movie. Or you can also enjoy something by yourself by clicks on Netflix. Comparing the front-stage back-stage of these services and observing the experience finally could become some insights of the touch-points.

This document discusses Lisp and its uses as a universal wrapper language. Some key points:
- Lisp makes complex things accessible and simple things fall into place on their own. Its core principles include everything being an expression, everything being a first-class citizen, programs being living entities, and its core consisting of 25 basic forms that can be customized.
- Lisp is a computationally oriented language. Examples are given of using Lisp to wrap SQL, build a poor man's ORM, wrap "black box" services like Redis, and implement complex algorithms like CKY parsing.
- Resources and tools for learning Lisp are provided, and questions about why, what for, and who Lisp is

It is my pleasure to present the 10th Scottsdale Police
Department Strategic Plan (2014/15-2019/20). This document
is built on the foundation of past successes and combined
with a vision for the future of our Department and our
community. The strategies identified in this plan are the
product of three different planning retreats and determined
to be priorities as a part of our in-depth planning process.
This five-year plan encompasses the Department’s
commitment to community concerns through six Strategic
Directions. These directions include enhancing capabilities,
building and enhancing community partnerships, investing
and retaining in exceptional employees who are skilled and
efficient in their duties, and advancing technological solutions
while planning for future growth.
I encourage you to review the included Strategic Plan initiatives, which reaffirm our commitment to the

The 14-acre Union Park site has a history as a commercial and industrial district dating back to the mid-19th century. Originally part of John Couch's 1845 land claim, the area developed into a warehouse and shipping hub served by rail. In the early 20th century, the first Portland post office building was constructed on the site to take advantage of railway transportation. The current larger USPS building was built in 1962 to accommodate new mail sorting technology. For decades, the site has been identified in Portland plans as a key opportunity for increased employment, housing, and mixed-use redevelopment due to its large size and central location.
The document provides an executive summary and business plan for a proposed mixed-use development called "The HUB." Key details include:
- The HUB will be located near a transportation hub in Layton, Utah, with proximity to a future community hospital and historic downtown.
- The development will include residential, retail, office, and recreational spaces, with the goal of creating an urban lifestyle with connectivity to transportation and amenities.
- Financial projections estimate an unlevered internal rate of return of 7.67% and levered IRR of 15.02%, with $3.16 million in additional equity needed from investors.

6. Mending is an in
depth study about
trends in suburban
development
specifically in Utah
County of Utah. The
focus of this Master’s
Report is to provide
the background
and evidence that
there are design
alternatives which
can contribute to the
mending of suburban
sprawl. The analysis
of the two design
proposals provides
valuable insight into
the feasibility or
desirability of key
design principles
contained in each
design proposal.
The study provides
compelling evidence
that alternative
methods of community
design and suburban
development are to
be considered to help
the region achieve its
long range planning
goals set forth in the
Envision Utah initiative.

Student Design
Competition is
a two-week intense
competition sponsored
by the Urban Land
Institute. It is open
to graduate students
in design, planning,
business, and law.
Our project titled
“Pulse” cultivates
urban development
throughout San
Diego’s East Village,
providing families
with an urban
alternative to suburbia
by centralizing
opportunities for
education and
innovation in San
Diego. With schools,
a library, green space,
and an entrepreneurial
center, Pulse sustains
life in a progressive
community. I
generated all the
renderings for this
project to portray our
design intent to the
judges. Methods used
include ArcGIS 9.3,
Autocad Civil 3D 2010,
Sketchup, SUPodium,
Photoshop, and
Illustrator.
10. Peora City Hall
Rendering.
CMT Engineering
contracted with myself
to produce conceptual
renderings for the
city of Peoria, IL.
Renderings were used
for fund raising efforts
for the renovation of
the existing city plaza.
All renderings were
produced by myself.
Methods used include
Autocad Civil 3D 2010,
SketchUp, SUPodium,
and Photoshop.
12. Terrybrook
Farms
residential
community
located in Overland
Park, KS, produced
for Don Julian
Development. The
concept of this plan
revolved around open
space preservation
while creating distinct
neighborhoods with
individual identities. A
community center was
located near the main
entrance to welcome
visitors. Methods
used were ArcGIS 9.3,
Autocad Civil 3D 2010
and Photoshop.
Construction
documents produced:
- master plan
- road alignment
- mass grading
- storm water
14. Northland
Design. As a
landscape architect
intern, I was exposed
to various aspects of
landscape architecture
including program
development,
conceptualization,
design detail,
and construction
documentation. I
was able to work on
projects from small
residential gardens,
to large commercial
projects.

16. Baker Residence
Is located in the
neighborhood of Two
Rivers in Eagle, Idaho.
While working for
Evolution Landscape
and Nursery I was
able to oversee the
design installation for
this entire project. I
managed crews for
grading, hardscape,
and planting. The
challenges in this
project involved
creating a flagstone
patio with a sand
beach surrounded
with large boulders.
The projects was
focused on creating
privacy screens for
the residence while
preserving views to
the man-made lake
in the backyard. This
project was exciting
because of the needed
coordination with the
landscape architect
and the landscape
contractor.
18. Lakemoor and
Dallan Woods
are two neighborhoods
in Eagle and Nampa,
While working for
Evolution Landscape
and Nursery, I was
able to oversee
installation and
maintenance for many
of the landscape
projects in these
developments. I
coordinated plant
installation with the
landscape architect
and construction
crew leaders, ensured
quality control, and
organized installation
schedules. Challenges
for these projects
included coordinating
installation for
large plant material
and ensuring their
successful survival.
These projects were
extremely rewarding
for myself because of
the interaction I had
with the landscape
architect and the
practical experience I
received.
20. Constuction
Drawings were
created for a new
athletic center at
Doane College in
Crete, NE.
Drawings include:
-Development Plan
-Grading Plan
-Earthwork Plan
-Layout Plan
-Irrigation Plan
-Lighting Plan

22. An urban redesign
focused on the
Central Corridor
of St. Paul, MN.
The existing buildings
of an industrial site
were to be
transformed into a
dense transit
hub with bus,
commuter and
light rail services.
The concept
focused on two
anchors, the light
rail station and
the commuter
station, to create
a pedestrian zone
full of services
for all travelers.
This concept was
derived from the
model of shopping
malls with anchor
stores at the
edges. The plan
is centered by a
plaza demonstrating
the importance
of the railroad to
the regional history.
