I was born in Ciudad Satelite, a middle-class suburban area located in the State of Mexico, designed by one of the biggest Mexican architects; Mario Pani and influenced by Luis Barragan. But basically I grew up in Mexico City, so I‘ve been a mix between cultures, a product of the metropolis.My Architecture is influenced by the weather, the people, the corruption, and the city. After High School I decided to live in Toronto for a while, exposing my vulnerability and learning from my mistakes.
Studied in Mexico City at Universidad La Salle, I graduated first in class and was awarded for my final project; Arena Santa Fe. Internshiped at Dellekamp Arquitectos, having the first approach to real clients, competitions and design.
I worked in Nava+Nosti Arquitectos, leading 3 residence projects and construction, participated in PFFF! CityVision competition back in 2011, awarded with honorable mention.
Moving forward in my carreer I started working with Fernando Romero at FR-EE in Mexico City, entered the company as a Junior Architect and later on leaded projects as Museo Soriano, Telcel Offices, UNO TV, and National Laws University.

PFFF – Inflatable Architecture Competition, Cityvision, Honorable Mention
PFFF, inflatable architecture competition, Special Mention
Citivision Magazine
PFFF is an inflatable architecture competition dedicated to architects, designers, students and engeneers focused on the design and realization of an inflatable pavilion that can embody the spirit of the FARM project. The competition is promoted by FARM, a contemporary active cultural and turistic center project based in Sicily that has as first mission the promotion of contemporary art and culture. PFFF was established under the FARM Cultural Camp project, which aims to carry around the world works and installations by national and international creative youth. The inflatable mobile pavilion project will have a maximum size of 50 square meters. The pavilion will be used many times and it will have to be easily transportable and installable in squares, parks, meeting places of different cities and FARM Cultural Camp tour’s stops. The study of the atmospheric conditions (wind, rain, heat, cold) will be very important as well as the pavilion’s internal security. The study of materials, methods of inflation and deflation, structure anchoring to the ground and openings will be critical to the success and safety of the project
