Urban Planning Writing
Cognitive Mapping
The task was to illustrate through descriptive narrative a journey we have taken in our lives. The path could be one that we've taken once, or one that bears wear from our frequent travels.
I chose to illustrate a journey I had taken many times when I was growing up in Florida. It was the path to our beach house in New Symrna Beach. The journey changed a lot over the years, but in many ways, stayed exactly the same.

Tufts Admissions Personal Statement
When I was applying to the graduate program at Tufts for Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning, I had just earned a BS in Environmental Science and Policy at the University of South Florida. I sought my degree so I could learn the ins and outs of environmental science, as well as learn what policies and laws were in place to mitigate the potential harms done to the environment. What I learned about myself in addition to physical sciences and law was equally as important.
As I was poised to continue my journey about environmental science and planning, I was at a critical time in understanding my role in the environmental movement. This essay marks the conclusion of a grieving process, one where I was grieving the loss of the planet, but understanding my role with the utmost clarity.

Ode to the North End
The task was to describe our idea of the perfect community, regardless of whether it existed or not. While others contemplated dream communities that broke the barriers of physical possibility, I opined about the community I live in: The North End of Boston. No other place I have seen displayed the essence of a perfect place. This narrative describes why this little neighborhood captured the heart of this urban planner.
