About 

I am an architect and researcher deeply passionate about exploring the relationship between identity, place, and design. My work is driven by a curiosity to learn from the past—studying traditional techniques and cultural narratives to inform innovative and sustainable architectural solutions.

I have collaborated with teams on diverse projects, ranging from high-rise office buildings and residential complexes to renovations and interiors. This experience has enabled me to approach each project holistically, ensuring that every design is rooted in its context and tells a meaningful story.

I am also skilled in material and fabrication processes, utilizing advanced tools like laser cutters, CNC machines, and 3D printers to bridge traditional craftsmanship with modern technologies. My goal is to create architecture that not only respects its history but also contributes to a sustainable and vibrant future.
