City of Selma Town Center Masterplan
Selma, TXThe City of Selma is a small town off of the 1-35 highway. They are fragmented by isolated commercial strip centers and suburban housingblocks. They were in need of an identity. The plan was a high-density mixed-use development, that is pedestrian friendly and had active flexible public spaces. The site is located along Dietz creek, so the master plan was expanded to include the naturalization of the creek with the inclusion of walking and biking trails. There are three unique districts within the town center that speak to all residents, and visitors. A Community District with lots of public green spaces and parks surrounded by townhomes. A Commercial District with office and retail. As well as an entertainment District with an array of restaurants, brewery’s, and live music venues. I was the job captain for the documentation and I did the floorplans, elevations,
consultants coordination, landscape design, and renderings.
VIA Metro Scobey-Complex Masterplan & Feasibility Study
San Antonio, TXThe “Scobey Fireproof Storage Company” was established in 1913 as San Antonio’s first fireproof storage for household goods and merchandise.

Previously a cold storage and warehouse business defunct in the 70’s and left to blight the neighborhood that would also see a once thriving district become derelict. A developer-focused feasibility study was conducted to find the best use and how it could be done. The transit-oriented project looked at relocating VIA’s offices into the building, market rate commercial mixed-use, multi-family residential, and student housing. I was the job captain for the documentation and I did the floorplans, elevations, and renderings.
