The yearlong senior thesis capstone project was an extremely intensive process which required skills of time management and problem solving.  Sometimes it felt like there was not enough time to complete everything to the extent that I had wished but this is how real world design is going to be.  Dedication and commitment to this project was of the utmost importance and the key to its success.  I truly learned how to produce the highest quality of work in the  time allotted and put my engineering skills, learned throughout the years in the Architectural engineering program, to the test.

CPEP Reflection 

The Capstone Project e-Portfolio (CPEP) was a convenient way of communicating the progress of my senior thesis project.  Having access to other projects, from students years past, truly clarified many questions that I had throughout this process.  I feel that this tool was extremely useful and convenient and it was also a neat process to create and manage my own website.
