About 

I am an architect with more than 9 years experience on Design, planning, performing, and evaluation of various phases of architectural and master planning projects from concept design to construction.  I have developed different proposals for public buildings, housing, urban planning projects, and interactive installations, liaising with consultants and coordinating teams, managing the production of drawings, outline and detail design, and producing documentation packages. I believe that the foundations of architecture are a constant learning, serious research and creative experimentation; consequently, I have focused my work on creating and building responsibility through architecture, leading groups and working on decision-making.
