      During my internship with Weyland Ventures, I have had the absolute pleasure of assisting the subsidiary Common Bond Hotel Collection with the creation of marketing material for their soon-to-open boutiques in Louisville, Bardstown, and beyond. From creation of architectural renderings, logos, and beverage labels, I generally have helped the amazing hospitality team prep for website launches and happy guest stays in the future!

      I am working to create to envision, create, and sustain experiences at the intersection of urbanism and architecture.
