Abstract
General criteria are given for when an embedding of a Mori dream space into another satisfies certain nice combinatorial conditions on some of their associated cones. An explicit example of such an embedding is studied, specifically how a non-toric del Pezzo surface embeds into a toric variety in this manner.
