Central Services Building at McMurdo Station Antarctica - Stantec, Parsons, a design-build team to handle design, architecture leadership, and interiors-planning assessments for the National Science Foundation’s (NSF’s) Antarctic Infrastructure Modernization for Science (AIMS) project. AIMS is designed to ensure that major portions of McMurdo Station—the logistics hub for the NSF-managed U.S. Antarctic Program, and the largest research facility on the southernmost continent—remains a state-of-the-art platform capable of supporting world-class Antarctic science for the next 35 to 50 years. McMurdo Station was built more than 60 years ago and has grown organically in the interim. Many of the station’s buildings are aged, obsolete and energy inefficient. An independent review of the U.S. Antarctic Program in 2011 determined McMurdo required upgrades to achieve more cost- and energy-efficient and logistically streamlined operations

Tom Bradley International Terminal at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) As the largest public works project in Los Angeles’ history. The resulting LEED Gold design recharges the once outdated facility with a convenient and comfortable passenger experience, functional upgrades, and architectural forms that capture the essence of LA’s character.Design approach blends grand scale with the intimacy of human scale, while interweaving the essence of the city into every facet of the project to establish a sense of place. To create a design that echoes its context, the terminal’s rhythmic roofline evokes the Pacific Ocean’s cresting waves. The site-responsive roof form optimizes building performance by reducing solar glare and heat from the ocean from the west and bathes the terminal in natural light from the northeast. Expansive glass curtain walls offer dramatic views of the airfield and the nearby Santa Monica Mountains. Clerestory windows fill the Great Hall with sunlight, connecting travelers to LA’s natural beauty.Triple-deck boarding bridges were specifically developed to accommodate the A380, providing faster, more efficient boarding and deplaning. New centralized ticketing and security screening areas improve wayfinding with a clear sequence that leads directly to the Great Hall while new automated baggage systems expedite the travel experience. Worked as a project architect and Revit leader responsible for the detailing and documentation of the roof design.
