IT IS MY HOPE THAT WITH THIS CONTEXT ‐ ALONG WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE TIME, EFFORT, AND COSTS ASSOCIATED IN PURSUIT OF THIS GOAL ‐ YOU ARE ABLE TO APPROVE THIS VARIANCE REQUEST. IN 2011, I FOUNDED SHiP: STUDENTS FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION AT LSU, WHICH STILL OPERATES AS A STUDENT GROUP TODAY. THE GROUP HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN BRINGING VISTING PROFESSORS TO INSTRUCT AT LSU SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE'S FIRST COURSE ON HISTORIC PRESERVATION. STILL UNDER MY MENTORSHIP, IN 2012, SHiP WAS AWARDED FIRST PLACE IN THE CHARLES E. PETERSON PRIZE ‐ AN AWARD GIVEN BY THE NATIONAL PARK SERVCE OF THE US DEPARTMENT OF INTERIORS ‐ FOR DOCUMNETATION OF HISTORIC BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES, AND CULTURAL LANDSCAPES. MY TIME SPENT AT VIRGINIA TECH, THROUGH THE WASHINGTON ALEXANDRIA ARCHITECTURE CONSORTIUM (WAAC), PROVIDED MANY OPPURTINITIES INCLUDING SITTING ON HEARINGS REGARDING HISTORIC PRESERVATION DESIGN GUIDELINES. I ALSO WAS HONORED TO INTERN AT THE NATIONAL BUILDING MUSEUM IN WASHINGTON DC ‐ OUR NATION'S MUSEUM THAT IS DEDICATED TO THE HISTORY AND IMPACT OF ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN. THE MUSEUM HAS A SPECIFIC FOCUS ON BUILDING HERITAGE, URBAN DESIGN, AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION.

MANY HOUSES DATING FROM THE 1930s, SUCH AS THIS ONE, REFLECT THE EARLY AGRICULTURAL WORKING CLASS HISTORY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. RESIDENTS WORKED AT AREA FARMS OR AT BLUE COLLAR OCCUPATIONS IN NEARBY AUSTIN.
