AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY ADVISORMarch 2012- April 2014As a Peace Corps Volunteer in Madagascar, I worked with women's groups and schools to create community gardens to aid in food security, conducted nutritional trainings, and held malaria prevention workshops. Additionally, I worked with cocoa farmers to improve post-harvest processing methods in order to increase yield, raise quality, and develop new markets.

PLANTING CONSULTANTUNIVERSITY OF ARIZONAFall 2015As a landscape consultant for an architechture design-build studio, I chose a desert appropriate plant palette and designed the planting plan to be built at the west entrance of the College of Architecture.

INTERN, LIVING STREETS ALLIANCETUCSON, AZ: SEPT 2014-PRESENTThe mission of the Living Streets Alliance is to promote healthy communities by empowering people to transform streets into vibrant places for walking, bicycling, socializing, and play. My role with them is to organize community events, develop website content, and coordinate and train volunteers.

The master plan has been designed to intermix the facilities and functions of the equestrian research facilities, business and public educational buildings, connections to the neighboring communities, as well as a small residential area. The project proposes an expansion of the existing Karsten building with a connecting courtyard, a new breeding barn, two stables with additional stall, wash room and tack space, turnout paddocks, training rings, exhibition spaces, and designated parking areas.

Connections to existing greenhouses and extension areas, as well as connections to the Rillito River Path and the Rio Vista Natural Resource Park will invite visitors to learn about current research campaigns on the farm. Access from Campbell Avenue and Roger Road allows larger vehicles to access the facilities, and a new connection to Tucson Blvd further integrates the park into the surrounding context. Separate parking for visitors, stables, and casitas provides comfortable access for any user group. An outdoor classroom will provide academic, business and public meeting space. Additionally, six residential casitas will house visiting faculty, researchers, or graduate students, and the Karsten Research Center building will house offices, meetings and public presentations.

Ecological considerations include native or appropriate plant selection, as well as increased wildlife habitat due to a 150’ buffer on either side of the Christmas wash. Shade trees will provide comfort for users near facilities but allow for view of the Catalina Mountains to the North.

The University of Arizona College of Agriculture and Life Sciences operates a highly recognized Thoroughbred breeding farm at its Equine Center located on the west side of the intersection of Campbell Road and Roger Road. In addition, the University is converting the Karsten Turfgrass Facility, located east of Campbell Avenue along Roger Road, into expanded Equine Research facilities. The site is bordered by the Rillito River on the north, Roger Road on the south, Rio Vista Natural Resources Park to the east, and the Pima County Cooperative Extension Gardens to the west.

The University of Arizona College of Agriculture and Life Sciences’ Equine Center is well-renowned for its breeding programs and cutting-edge research on equitation, horsemanship, and herd management. The Equine Sciences department seeks to expand the vision of the College to include reproductive technologies as well as provide opportunities for the public to learn about research projects.

The design works with the existing grade where possible to minimize the amount of disturbance to the natural grade and control storm water flow. Structures and pathways were sited to respect the existing mesquite trees as well as protecting and buffering the Christmas wash that runs through the property. Safety is the primary goal for the horses as well as the people around them. Careful consideration has been taken to avoid conflict between vehicular and pedestrian or equestrian circulation, as well as to separate public areas from research spaces.

PERSPECTIVES

An open lawn for recreation and events abuts the terraced rooftop gardens of the new Banner-University Medical Center, bringing a comfortable scale and sense of lushness to the desert landscape. A “stream” water features runs the entire length of the axial pathway, serving as a therapeutic and way-finding feature for patients and visitors.

Page 11: Gabrielle Jehle Portfolio

Additional desert-appropriate vegetation adds shade and ecological functions to the west entrance to the College of Architecture.

This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Museum Entry Plaza orients visitors toward the main entrance.

Weaving through the light features at the entrance to the Congress Pedestrian Promenade provides users a sense of entry as well as safety from automobiles.

Native vegetation along the new Himmel Park nature trail provides wildlife habitat and recreation opportunities.

Right, the planting plan for the University of Arizona College of Architecture, Planning and Landscape Architecture West Entrance will be implemented in Fall 2016.

Valley of the Moon (left and above) was looking to use vegetation to create unique spaces and a sense of mystery while still keeping maintenance costs low.

WRITING SAMPLE

The Banner University Medical Center has unveiled its plans to build a new, 11- story hospital building next to the existing Diamond Children’s Medical Center that will be completed in 2018. This landscape design will enhance the automobile, emergency, bicycle and pedestrian circulation, integrate the building into the landscape, reflect the importance of research and scholarship, and provide therapeutic spaces for peace and healing.

Vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle circulation will connect emergency access points, Diamond Children’s Center, Trauma Center, existing parking garages, and other parts of the medical campus.• Circulation will include a drop-off zone near the entrance, pedestrian access throughout campus, and paths through the garden spaces for patient and staff use.• A green space buffer along the north edges of the property will protect the nearby neighborhood from noise and traffic.

Visitors and patients are greeted with a water feature cascading off the building into a geometric-patterned metal grate. Water comes from the building’s AC units, and falls in a thin, steady stream, providing a pleasant trickling sound. Visitors can see through the open, vegetated entry courtyard into the gardens to the South.

Terraced roof gardens bring a pleasant scale to the tall building, and add additional green space for patients. The curved East and West wings embrace the open lawn, where patients can enjoy views of the Catalina Mountains, and the hospital can hold events or functions.

A rainbow pathway connects Diamond Childrens Hospital to the Childrens Garden, where soft, colored pathways and play spaces weave through the vegetation masses. Near the hospital entry, moveable patio seating provides a place for visitors to gather or for patients to socialize.

Staff, patients and family members will experience areas of peace within the stressful hospital environment.• Healing properties of nature will benefit patients.• The design includes intimate spaces for solitude and private conversations, as well as spaces for gathering.• The landscape also addresses ecological considerations including water harvesting, shade, and native vegetation.The landscape design and fine art component will reflect research and scholarship.• A water feature and handcrafted grate will create a focal point for the arrival to the hospital’s North entry.

The building design is centered around the idea of embracing the landscape and integrating nature into the building fabric, just like the hospital embraces the patient and encorporates nature into the healing process. The view of the space from above was an important consideration for patients who are confined to their room and only able to experience the landscape as a 2-dimensional plan. Curvilinear features bring a sense of peaceful energy flow into the design, and areas of dense, native vegetation give more mental green space and positive stimulation to patients confined to their room.

OPPORTUNITIES

Informal foot paths are located very close to traffic

Himmel Pool is historic and well-loved

Turf is controversial. In a desert landscape where water is scarce, is it ecologically responsible?

Much of the park is dominated by unprogrammed open fields, which have no clear circulation paths across.

Tennis courts are an asset to the park.

A concerned neighborhood works hard to care for their park.

Himmel Park Public Library provides educational resources and programming

Amenities are outdated, uncomfortable, and often unshaded.

Peace Corps Madagascar

During my Peace Corps Service in rural Northern Madagascar, I worked toward increasing food security in my Malagasy community in rural Northern Madagascar.

My projects included creating school and community gardens, conducting family planning and nutritional trainings, and developing cooperatives among cocoa farmers to increase post-harvest quality and create new markets.
