KLKIMBERLY LYNCH 32 Trinity Place Hewlett, NY 11557 (516) 884-6450 klynch@stu.norwich.edu http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kimberly-lynch/64/b18/b1a Dear Hiring Manager, My name is Kimberly Lynch and I am currently completing my Master of Architecture at Norwich University. I will be graduating in May 2015 and moving back to the New York City area immediately after. I came across the research fellow position for Art Walk NYC on the New York Foundation of the Arts website and feel I would be a great addition to your team. Currently I am completing my thesis research and designing an inclusive preschool for children with autism. I spent the last seven months researching how architecture affects a child with autism, resulting in a design of a preschool for all children. The preschool will take what I have learned in my research to make an architectural solution to the problem. Since the rates of autism are rising greatly, the research is current as well as prevalent. I enjoyed the opportunity to thoroughly research a topic before beginning any design work, and hope to have the same opportunity researching New York City. Over the past five years I have gained considerable knowledge in the programs of AutoCAD, Sketchup, Rhino, Artlantis, and the Adobe Creative Design Suite. I participated in the Department of Energy Solar Decathlon with a group of 18 other students where we collaboratively designed and built a solar powered home. This project consisted of two years of work, including a summer internship where we constructed the house, put together construction documents, and shipped the house to California for the competition. In the most recent summer I interned with a local drafting firm where I assisted with red lines of construction documents, rendering of elevations, and taking dimensions at local sites. This internship was done in conjunction with a summer course where I learned the more detailed areas of how a firm is run and operated. This internship lasted ten weeks and ended when the summer course had been completed. I feel I would be a beneficial team member to Art Walk as I am a responsible and hard working individual that will work hard to succeed. I have attached my resume and sample pages for your review. Additional work and references can be provided upon request. I can be contacted by email at: klynch@stu.norwich.edu or my phone at: (516) 884-6450. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you, Kimberly Lynch

KLKIMBERLY LYNCH 32 Trinity Place Hewlett, NY 11557 (516) 884-6450 klynch@stu.norwich.edu http://www.linkedin.com/pub/kimberly-lynch/64/b18/b1a Thesis Research Fall 2014 Master of Architecture THESIS RESEARCH Broad Spectrum Preschool - For children with and without ASD To provide a broad-spectrum preschool that is inclusive to children on the autism spectrum. The preschool will accommodate children ages 0-5 years old, both with and without autism spectrum disorder, creating a learning environment conducive to children. The preschool will promote understanding and patience between children, and provide equal learning opportunities for children with autism by designing environments that keep a child with autism at ease. Autism spectrum disorder affects a child’s sensory understanding. Spaces must be designed with this in mind in order for the child to succeed in the classroom. Acoustics, lighting, textures, and volume all change the experience within a space for the user. Exploring these areas of design has proven there are changes that can be made to better suit a child with autism as well as benefit the typically developing child. Although the preschool will be designed with the needs of a child with autism in mind, development for all children is the main goal. Classrooms will promote cognitive, social, creative and communication development, as well as choice, order and routine. The environments must remain large enough for the children to enjoy, with visual barriers to break down a room into smaller compartments.

The frame of the home was built at a modular home company in central Vermont. The home was then brought to campus where students worked to complete the interior and exterior portions of the home. I personally designed and built furniture, as well as assisted in finishing other larger aspects of the home.

Architectural STudies Case Study Model: Bruder Klaus Field Chapel by Peter Zumthor [Plaster] For this project I explored the construction and design of the Bruder Klaus Field Chapel by Peter Zumthor. This involved building a 1/2” = 1’-0” scale model of the chapel out of plaster. It was poured in lifts to emulate how the actual chapel was built. This project taught me how to successfully work with plaster in a way that I had not explored previously. Multi-Mode: Modular Dormitory Design For Norwich University Multi-Mode involved designing a dormitory using a modular system for Norwich University. From this I learned the constraints that modular design truly has, but also the benefits it provides. The modularity aspect of this design created the living portion of the building, while the circulation space would be built on site.
