I am working toward a Master’s Degree in Urban Design through the Ball State College of Architecture and Planning’s Indianapolis Center. My undergraduate degree is in Urban Planning and Development from Ball State’s main campus in Muncie, Indiana. As an undergrad I completed an internship with the City of Greenwood, Indiana in their planning department. I continue to work with Greenwood through my graduate studies as a graduate assistant. I am currently living in downtown Indianapolis and am excited to see how this shapes future views of mine through this program. My main interests include downtown revitalization techniques and transit oriented developments.
