Started my architecture education in 2003 at the School of Architecture of the University of Puerto Rico. During my undergraduate studies I was involved in several activities like being a member of the student council, a joint studio with the GSD at Harvard and the construction of a ecological micro house. In 2008 I graduated Cum Laude with an Environmental Design Bachelor Degree. Afterwards I acquired my Master of Architecture and a Urban Design Certificate at the University of Maryland in College Park. Throughout graduate school I worked as a Teacher Assistant for a Computer Applications Course and an Undergrad Design Studio. In 2010 I presented my thesis project Redifining the School Building A New model for Schools in San Juan, Puerto Rico. In this project I explored the idea of a contemporary model of schools and educations for schools in Puerto Rico. I am currently working at Paul Cox Architects a small firm in Falls Church whose work focuses on interior commercial spaces for property owners in the area. My experience ranges from leasing coordination and project design to construction administration and project closeout. Throughout this process I have been involved in coordination with clients, consultants and contractors to provide the best value to the end user of the space. Most of this projects require to meet this goals while working within tight budget and schedule constrains. I am currently a member of the AIA DC chapter and the USGBC. Recently completed the ARE exams and currently working on completing my IDP hours and obtaining LEED Certification. My current goal in further developing my career is to acquire formal experience in the design, development and construction of commercial base building.
