High End Finisher / Restorer at Christophe Pourny Ltd.
Architectural Designer at Janko Rasic Architects, PLLC
At Janko Rasic Architects, we are a boutique architecture firm that offer design solutions that are sustainable, efficient, classic, and enduring. Through creative collaboration, we produce an imaginative, cost effective solution to achieve our client's goals. As an architectural designer, I collaborate directly with clients, coworkers, and consultants on an array of diverse projects. Of these projects I am involved in all phases of the design process, including but not limited to surveying, drafting and design, space planning, and project management. 
 
As a graduate of Philadelphia University, I obtained a degree in Architectural Studies with a concentration in Historic Preservation. As a student I was inspired by the historic precedents that have set the foundation for modern and contemporary design.  

This portfolio and selected works represent my skills in design, documentation, and adaptive reuse that I have completed while enrolled at Philadelphia University's College of Architecture and the Built Environment, as well as selected professional works. My objective is to obtain a position with a firm which will utilize my skills in architecture and interior design, building assessment, and my working knowledge of historic preservation principles.
Christophe Pourny Ltd.
As of summer 2013, I was given the opportunity to work for Christophe Pourny Ltd. as a member of his interior restoration crew. I participated in a 3 month project restoring the main lobby of 834 5th Ave. The following summer of 2014, was offered a full time summer position in the Brooklyn studio where I participated in a 3 month interior design project. My role was to finish prefabricated panels in straw marquetry to be installed in a private residence in Bratislava, Slovakia. In the summer of 2016, I returned to Christophe Pourny Ltd. finishing prefabricated panels in straw marquetry for the Salvatore Ferragamo flash-ship store in Las Vegas, Nevada.

I was part of an architectural design team, involved in designing the flood prevention and retention systems for a public housing project in lower Manhattan. The design's intent was to combat the destruction created by flood waters in the event of another "Super Storm" as demonstrated by Hurricane Sandy in 2012. 

My tasks involved generating general construction documents and producing digital and physical models for presentation and marketing.

Junior Designer
Fairmount Park Historic Preservation Trust
Under the Fairmount Park Historic Preservation Trust, student interns from surrounding Philadelphia colleges and myself, worked as a team restoring a 19th Century High Victorian known as the "Thomas Mansion." As interns we experience proper restoration techniques used on interiors, without damaging or hindering the history. At the Fairmount Park Historic Preservation Trust I was responsible for daily on site or off site restoration projects. Daily tasks included the restoration of historic interiors, historic window glazing, painting of cultural sites, and miscellaneous restoration projects for the Fairmount Park properties.

Intern
Bachelor of Science (B.S.)
As a recent graduate of Philadelphia University’s Architecture Studies program with a concentration in Historic Preservation, I focused upon the relationship between rehabilitation of historic buildings and sustainability. Students learn to determine historic significance of structures, viewed not as disembodied artifacts but as possibilities for adaptive reuse and retrofitting, as models of energy efficiency, and as part of the cultural fabric of a community. From streets and neighborhoods to entire cities, both locally and internationally, historic preservation is an innovative practice that is essential to the development of environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable urban spaces.

The design of the suggested South Broad Street entry is inspired by the church’s Beaux Art style. Composed of two level half circle platforms radiating from the main doorway and an adjacent rectilinear seating area with a bench which conceals the ADA ramp, the new design references the rational design principles of Beaux Arts style, shying away from an organic form. This suggestion creates an inviting outdoor space for visitors and members of the congregation to gather during weekend services and daily tours.

The aim of the archeo institute was to understand the context of a public site, while designing a building that will showcase and support the functions of an archaeological dig site. The design of the Archeo Institute was inspired by the idea of scaffolding in the way in which it is utilized during excavations. The site located upon a slope supports the idea of tiered platforms built around an undisturbed dig, the public and display spaces are to located according to the open plan of the second and third tiers, while the private spaces are confined to the first tier. All tiers are accessible through a circulation tower and landings accessible from the second and third tiers which are suspended above the dig.The ease of tension between public and private spaces, enables the archaeologists to work while visitors are able to view the excavations in process.

The emphasis of the project was to stress the idea of workable drawings, The aim of the project was to design a weather/nature observatory on a location of our choice on the Ravenhill side of Philadelphia University's Ravenhill Campus, However design is confined to the rules that the structure must not be a fully enclosed space, therefore it must be formed by L-shaped forms.

The Peter Max Gallery was part of a project to design a gallery space based on the characteristics of the artist's style. Peter Max known in his early career, using bright colors and hard lines transitioned in his later career to vibrant colors and thick brush strokes. The design of the gallery is inspired by Peter Max's transition as an artist. The structure of the gallery frames and the building with organically formed walls that circulate the gallery's interior.
