SUMMARY
I am passionate about architecture and urban studies, and I recognize the power of an architect-planner to reshape communities, so I always look for ways to get closer to my goals. Participating in architectural and planning competitions taught me how to collaborate effectively. Throughout my bachelor's and master's degree, I held numerous positions of responsibility that allowed me to plan events and lead teams. Various workshops, competitions, publication and presentation of research papers have piqued my interest in the Housing.
