Full-scope design and development of a private summer residence for a high-net-worth client in Cieneguilla, Peru. A custom 600 sqm home set across a generous exterior of 200 sqm, designed from the ground up to respond to the site’s topography, climate, and the client’s program. The project is being managed from concept through construction and delivery.
Third-year architectural and urban design studio project at Tulane School of Architecture. The cinema program served as a vehicle to engage urban site conditions, movement, and building form simultaneously, treating architecture and city as inseparable problems of design.
Mixed-use development strategy responsive to structural market shifts, including e-commerce displacement of traditional retail and remote work’s erosion of office demand. Conducted site and zoning analysis to guide massing studies and inform economically feasible programming. Analyzed market data to optimize residential mix, target tenant demographics, and position the project against comparable product in the submarket.
Adaptive reuse of the Market Street Power Plant, a 162,854 SF multi-story historic industrial structure built in 1905 in New Orleans’ Lower Garden District, into an experiential retail destination. Led architecture, spatial programming, and market-based tenant mix. Built full development proforma with $91.7M capitalization structure spanning a first mortgage, historic tax credits, NMTC benefits, brownfield grants, and public subsidies. Projected Year 10 sale at $60.8M.
Sustainable infill development adjacent to NYU Langone’s Perlmutter Cancer Center in Manhattan’s Murray Hill/Kips Bay district. The project leverages as-of-right community facility zoning and a Zoning Lot Merger with NYU Langone to unlock 38,934 SF of buildable area across a 25+ story tower. Construction strategy combines adaptive reuse of the existing concrete core with modular structural steel expansion. Delivered as a full institutional pitch to NYU, structured as either a joint venture or outright acquisition, with complete proforma, rent roll, capital stack, and IRR sensitivity analysis.
Response to Professor Margarita Jover’s Collective Housing studio at Tulane, designing a metahouse for an intentional community in New Orleans’ Garden District. The project operated across scales: from the interior logic of the home outward to the organization of collective life, shared space, and urban form. Housing designed from the inside out.
