Employment 

Meletitiki A.N. Tombazis a.e., Athens, GR, Project Architect

Working next to Alexander Tombazis was a dream for any young architect. I joined the studio during the designing of a massive development in Oman. A city size project, with plenty of clustered communities and street courtyards as masterplaned by Sir Norman Foster. The design was based on the modern housing blocks in combination with elements of traditional Islamic architecture. On spring 2017 the office invaded me back to work on St. Catherine's school project.

DECATHLON SA – Architecture, Planning, Consulting, Athens, GR, Project Architect, member of the Board of Directors

Decathlon became famous since Athens was nominated to host the Olympic Games in 2004. The office has designed and supervised most of the biggest parts for this event. Nowadays, the firm is successfully dealing with the design and management of major public and private projects, such as education, transport, clinical, retail and sport facilities. For the last 4 years I have been working on Technical Due Diligence Service for several properties including the privatization of Hellinikon SA and Afantou “GOLF” Rhodes as well as the masterplaning approval for “KILADA HILLS”. As a project architect, I have run a school for special needs and a major (carbon zero) office park in Piraeus.
