Junior Architect in the classical design tradition. Alumna of School of the Architecture at the University of Notre Dame
Hello, I am Elizabeth. This is a compilation of the work I completed throughout my past five years in the School of Architecture at the University of Notre Dame, various internships and now employment.
You will find my architecture portfolio below but please also consider looking at some of my photography and fine art.
Notre Dame School of Architecture provided me a premier education in classical Architecture including a year in Rome, Italy; supplemented with international placements & internships at leading classical firms in both the USA and United Kingdom. I attained a B.Arch. with a minor in Theology. I have now worked for over a year in Pennsylvania.
I am delighted to have been awarded the Trumbauer Award in a joint chapter ceremony for my student thesis project by the Institute of Clasical Architecture and Art. My submission included watercolor renderings and hand sketches. I am forever passionate about traditional design and deeply enjoyed the design and rendering process that gave form to the proposed design.
