Born and raised between Lima, Peru, and Miami, Florida, I started noticing design at a young age, thanks to the stark contrast between the diverse architectural styles in Peru and the modern high-rise buildings of downtown Miami. This unique blend of influences sparked my deep interest in architecture. I am a New York-based Designer with over 3 years of experience in the design field. My approach is marked by adaptability, meticulous attention to detail, and a strong commitment to delivering results.
I hold a 5-year Bachelor's Degree from Tulane University, which has provided me with a comprehensive foundation in design. My interests are both diverse and extensive, encompassing a wide spectrum from contemporary architecture to brand imaging and development, interior design, furniture, and fashion.
I firmly believe in the transformative potential of thoughtful design to elevate the quality of life and evoke profound emotions in its users. I advocate for the idea that its visual expression should be just as nuanced and impactful, creating memorable experiences.
