About 

Saul Archila graduated from Woodbury Universities, Bachelors of Architecture program in May of 2014. He has since specialized in Architectural renderings, physical and virtual 3 dimensional model making, commercial prototyping, 3D printing, jewelry design production and architectural construction documents. Saul is a first generation American with a background stemmed from a family of builders specializing in a wide array of construction trades (Carpenters, Plumbers, Electricians etc.). Experience has guided him to become a strong service oriented professional with a keen eye to detail. The distinct experience he received between the service industry, not for profit community development sector, overt mechanical expressionism and design-build realm have set him up with a unique set of skills fit to tackle any challenge set before him.
