Junior Architect and Drafter with over 10 years of experience in residential design, involving all phases SD, DD, and CD. Skilled in AutoCAD, SketchUp, Revit, Lumion and Adobe Suite, I bring both technical expertise and creative problem-solving to projects. Recognized as a creative, methodical, and organized professional, I excel in analyzing and developing comprehensive design solutions. I am a Team player, curious and proactive, always searching the best way to support the team. I strongly believe in the integration of architecture with its urban context in order to deliver powerful typologies that provide urban life to the city.
