About 

On December 2008 I graduated from the School of Architecture, Design & Urbanism of the University of Buenos Aires, but long before --in 2003-- I had started my professional career, working as a CAD Designer while I was still a student. Since then I have worked with various important architects who transferred me invaluable knowledge and experience while working at RoAA (2005-2007), the Department of Urban Development - Buenos Aires City Government (2005-2007), the School of Architecture - University of Buenos Aires (2006-2009), Horacio Torcello Arquitectos (2007-2009), and currently at Christopher Jeffrey Architects (2010-present).

I describe myself as a detailed, responsible, and productive hard worker, and as someone who is eager to learn from everyone in each and every steps of the architectural design and building process.

The last years I have been acquiring relevant experience working for several architectural firms in Buenos Aires (Argentina), and in New York (USA) where I worked in small-size projects such as houses, stores and small offices; large-size projects such as commercial centers and hotels, and urban projects, as well as many competitions.

Education 

Universidad de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, AR, MArch, Architecture

My architectural education at FADU-UBA (Facultad de Arquitectura, Diseño y Urbanismo - Universidad de Buenos Aires) was actually an integral-design education where students of architecture, graphic, industrial, textile and fashion design were working at the same places, sharing and exchanging visions, ideas and critics while surrounded and inspired by everyone’s work, no matter if it was an architectural model, a graphic design piece or a garment.

After finishing my degree courses I have been fully active as Assistant Professor; this included managing groups of up to 20 students, preparing lectures and presentations, and designing and mounting exhibitions. I found myself not just helping my students to find their own ways to learn architecture, but also learning a lot from them and their vision.
