Work History
Parks Planner Intern
Miami Dade County Parks, Recreation, And Open Spaces
06.2024 - 01.2025
During my internship with the Miami-Dade Parks, Planning, Design, and Excellence Division, I had the opportunity to contribute to a variety of public realm projects, ranging from long-range landscape planning to site-specific park design. I worked on planning diagrams focused on resiliency, graphic design layouts for active projects, conceptual illustrations, and technical mapping to support open space master planning. I also strengthened my skills in hand drawing, 3D visualization, and collaborated with different teams including Planning, Research, Grants, and Capital. In addition to attending site visits, seminars, and public meetings, I helped organize and support the Park(ing) Day event alongside the TPO, creating a fun and educational community installation.
