About 

Architect (Brazilian license) and Interior Architecture Designer with experience on residential, commercial and retail design. From meetings with clients and vendors, traveling through the whole course of creativity, budget and completing it on site helped me understanding the entire process of design and construction. I intend to incorporate my passion for fashion, nature and photography in every design.

I have always been a goal-oriented person who “lived for the next thing”, yet always appreciating each second of breathe. As a recent grad, I want to work for a company that will introduce me to the international fashion retail design industry. One of my goals is to run a company where multiple design professionals work together to improve the quality of retail projects and their designs.
