Brief Bio
I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I studied Graphic Design and Architecture in Cordoba and Buenos Aires. In 2010, I ran away to Los Angeles to marry the love of my life.
Focusing on cross-disciplinary collaboration between Architecture and Graphic Design, I hold a B.A. in Architecture, Landscape, Interiors from Otis College of Art and Design.
Philosophy
I have evolved around the contemporary cultural juxtaposition within Architecture and Graphic Design. My designs reflect my personality, idiosyncrasy, and passion. I like to make things that are contemporary and versatile but then I add a little twist, an unexpected color combination, historical, or anthropological reference.
And More
Passionate about architecture: whether it is coming to work every day, attending lectures and workshops, or traveling the world to see buildings I’ve studied, I love what I’m doing and hope the people around me do too.
I am excellent at the little big things. Listening to others, being considerate, asking and giving help, double checking my work, staying positive, looking professional, washing my dishes, looking professional while washing my dishes.
Hard-worker. I have proven I can thrive when meeting deadlines in an architecture studio, just as I did as a graphic designer. I focus not fizzle under pressure and can put in the time, but also know the value of balance. Let’s plan to be efficient, and work harder, and smarter.
Creative. Sure I can find creative solutions using my computer, but I don’t stop there. My brushes and easel are at the ready. I take the occasional ceramics class, build my own furniture, and paint my own walls. Well-rounded, thoughtful designers make for a richer workplace and richer work.

Otis College of Art and Design, Los Angeles, CA, US, Bachelors, Architecture, Landscape, and Interior Design
At Otis I studied about Architecture (buildings), Landscape (spaces between buildings) and Interiors (spaces within buildings) and the relationship with context and activities focused on design empowered by technologies and theory. What I most enjoyed? My senior year. In the senior year the entire class participated in designed and built a full-scale special environment, that experience gave me the opportunity to follow a project from beginning to ending.
