EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN BRANDED EXHIBITS INTERACTIVE EXPERIENCES
Themed Environment Design:
A project to design a period specific Caribbean village, with early 18th Century European influence. These buildings surround a large courtyard as you enter the gates from the harbor. Inside the buildings are retail shops, restaurant and bar. The courtyard acts as a meeting point for other attractions beyond these buildings. These pencil drawings represent one aspect of my development process in the concept phase.

Art, Fundraising, Renovation
In 2019, I helped raise over $100,000 in funds to save the Annapolis, MD based lighthouse from being torn down. The lighthouse needed structural renovation and facade preservation in order to save it, and after completion, the lighthouse remains open today for public tours.
