To Whom It May Concern:
Subject: Historic Preservation Commission Application
· I.am interested in serving on the commission because I have worked on various
architectural projects from across the country and feel my experiences could
benefit Dubuque. The projects worked within the standards and historic districts
to develop architecture appropriate for the site and the community that uses
them.
My personal belief is the tremendous impact preservation can have on a
community. I grew up in Dubuque and I believe I can help in a small way make
Dubuque a better place to live.
If you have any questions regarding my vitae or my interest in serving on the
commission please let me know. I am enthusiastic about working with people in
Dubuque on preservation issues and hope to hear from you soon.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION WORK HISTORY
Al Lundh and Associates, Dubuque, IA · Part-time
Title: Office Assistant
My father owed his own architecture firm in Dubuque, Iowa and I grew up working part-time
at his office. One project with existing and historic structures involved an American
Disability Act (ADA) survey of Dubuque's public buildings. The survey involved visiting
various sites and measuring relevant architectural features for compliance. A summary was
created and submitted to the city for long-term planning.
Iowa State University, Ames, IA · Fall 94
Title: Research Assistantship
I had three assistantships during my graduate school career. The first assistantship
involved developing marketing brochures, with building summaries and scaled down floor
plans, for distribution to potential buyerS interested in the turn of the century campus.
Iowa State University, Ames, IA · 5/95 to 8/96
Title: Residence Hall Facilities Department Lead Designer
My other relevant assistantship was with the Iowa State University Residence Hall. The ISU
residence halls are a series of aging buildings with numerous maintenance issues. I worked
as the lead-designer for internal projects constructed by the in-house staff. The projects
involved code compliance, fire marShal reports, routine maintenance projects and the design
of computer labs and hall director dormitories. I worked directly with in-house carpenterS,
HVAC, plumberS and electrical journey level employees to design and construct each
project.
Shive-Hattery, Architects & Engineers, Inc., Cedar Rapids, IA · 8/95 to 7/98
Title: Job Captain
Shive-Hattery is a multi-discipline firm. I worked on the commercial team and I often drafted
for the project architect, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers. I developed my
interest in historic buildings after realizing I had a good underStanding of existing structure
and how to work within that framework. I attribute my abilities to Jim Judy, the director of the
ISU Residence Hall Facilities Department. I changed my thesis for the last time when I
found a historical project working with the curator of the Galena Historical Museum. He
presented me with three locations to relocate Galena's historical museum. I chose the site
of the1859 Historic Post Office for the relocation. I started collecting information from the
· National Park Service about preservation and talked with the Shive-Hattery preservation
architect. Two projects that I worked on at Shive-Hattery that are relevant are the United

Airlines remodel in Cedar Rapids, Iowa and the University of Northern Iowa Gymnasium
remodel. In each project I was able to create existing drawings and be within a %, of the '
actual wall locations. This is relevant because when creating Histodc Amedcan Building
Survey (HABS) drawings you need to measure to the 1/8".
JPC, Architects PLLC, Redmond, WA · 7/98 to 8/99
Title: Job Captain
I worked a short time for an interior design firm consulting {Or Microsoft. They created a
shell and core team and tried to turn their interior design professionals toward delivering a
complete building product. I was on this team and the projects were borderline successful
but I did leam numerous applications for high-end materials and became well versed in
working with vendors on custom work. Preservation is composed of historical features and
artifacts that need special attention by profe.ssional craftsman.
BJSS Duarte Bryant Architecture, Seattle, WA · 8/99 to 11/00
Title: Job Captain
BJSS Duarte Bryant was the first true historic preservation firm that I worked for. I Worked
on higher education projects for Seattle University and Edmonds Community College. The
firm was attuned towards vendors capable of developing custom products and applying
those needs towards historic restoration and rehabilitation. I was impressed by the level of
proficiency in which the firm worked. Between .the higher education projects I developed a
proposal for Fort Lewis Army base. The project involved the rehabilitation of three army -
barracks using the Standards for Rehabilitation by the National Park Service (NPS). We
received the project after competing with two other large preservation firms.
Architectural Design West, Salt Lake City, UT · 2/01 to 2/02
Title: Job Captain
Because of family reasons 1 moved from Seattle to Salt Lake City, Utah. I hope to some day
return to BJSS Duarte Bryant and continuing working on the large preservation projects with
the Seattle Office. At Architectural Design West, I worked on numerous projects and
learned more about project management and construction administration. I worked directly
with contractors to solve problems and clients for project delivery. I was getting close to
finishing my intern credits and I started working full-time on my thesis. The firm downsized
and closed three offices thus laying me off. I started developing numerous drafts for my
thesis professor struggling through correct assessment of preservation projects and working
within the Standards. My professor was not trained in the preservation process and I had to
turn to professionals in the field to help with the research and eventual project completion. I
will discuss specific project details in my graduate degree summary.

Dubuque Historical Society, Dubuque, iA · 2003 - Present
Title: Anderson-Ryan House Historian
The Ryan house is one of four stops on a progressive dinner for bus tour groups visiting '
Dubuque. I help with the coordination of caterers and tour guides because the Ryan house
is responsible for the dinner location. I will soon start talking with the tour groups about the
specific history of the building.
Lundh Architecture, Dubuque, IA · Present
Title: Documentation work
I have started drawing the Ryan House with the thought of creating HABS drawings for the
Historical Society. On November 7th I will meet with a committee to help focus a lOng-term
direction for preservation projects and meeting some accessibility code issues. The building
is interesting because it is designed in a similar fashion to Terrace Hill, the governor's
mansion. Some of the same craftsman worked on both projects creating identical
architectural details.
I am working on a set of stairs leading down from Eag!e Point Park Overlook to the
Mississippi River. The steps were built approximately 1910 and were partially removed
during the toll-bridge onramp expansion in the 1930's. On the bluff, about one hundred feet
of the steps remain in mint COndition after approximately ninety years. A private owner is
proposing a COndominium project, with the dimensions of 600' x 40' x 80' tall, that will block
the bluffs of Eagle Point Park and severe the historic connection between the dyer and the
park. I was quoted in yesterday's Telegraph Herald about the history and I will present a
Powerpoint presentation on October 20t~ to the City Council about the history of the steps
and the importance of Dubuque's History.
I have some additional projects drawing existing floor plans and elevations for private
companies that I will not mention.

EDUCATION
Iowa State University, Ames, IA · 2003
M.Arch. in Amhitecture
Thesis: "Rehabilitation of Galena's 1858 Historic Post Office and Customhouse: For the
Relocation of the Galena-Jo Daviess Historical Society and Museum'
My thesis is the most important piece of my preservation experience. I worked with the
curator of the Galena Historic museum to help formulate program requirements for the
relocation of the museum. I worked with the city to gather information on building code
regulations and specific history from city hall on the lot description and boundary surveys. I
gathered drawings from the United States Postal Service (USPS) from the original drawings
on file at the Smithsonian to small building improvements over the years. I created a
chronological history of the buildings alterations to date. I found articles relating to the
development of the post offices and how it was the first federal building campaign in the
United States. I talked to the Illinois State Historic Preservation Officer to learn about
correct approaches to rehabilitating a historic building and also have sent him a copy of my
thesis. I recently spoke with him and I am sending some of the articles I found to help him
create a landmark district in downtown Galena. My thesis is attached and assembles all the
general information and provides a design proposal for the relocation of the museum.
Galena has a strong,interest in preservation and I hope to work at some future date with
their preservation committee to develop a rehabilitation project.
University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls, IA · 1991
B.A. in Finance
Senior Paper: "Business Analysis of Heartland Veterinary Clinic: Small Business

My undergraduate senior paper afforded me a reasonable way of assessing businesses and
determining a good way to increase profits. I hope to apply some of my work experience in
accounting and marketing to improve my businesses services and products.

my intern training. I have the design portion still ahead of me. I just received a letter stating
they were going to revamp the requirements in February making the exams more concise. I
might wait to finish my exams in February depending on what information 1 can get from the
National Council of Amhitectural Registration Boards (NCARB). I might only be required to
take one exam representing all of the design vignettes.
