About Me

My name is Jehlani Williams, a graduate student at SUNY ESF studying Landscape Architecture. Designing public spaces has easily become my biggest passion over the years. The idea that we—as planners, urban designers, or architects—can positively impact how people view their environment is something that truly fascinates me. The biggest thing I hope to achieve in my future career is to create a community’s Third Place, a term coined by Ray Oldenburg. I aim to create places where people want to be, not places where they need to be.

As you scroll through this website, you will see examples of work I have completed over my undergraduate career (2020-2024), as well as examples of projects I completed for internships and personal work. I truly am proud of how much I was able to learn and how much I was able to create in four short years.
