About 

Hello, my name is Mylene. In 2017 I graduated Florida International University with a Masters in Architecture. 

I am energetic and engaging person, who wholeheartedly loves this fast paced and thrilling profession. The past couple of years have taught me to really believe in a  work environment that fosters creativity in ways that everyone can benefit from it, from the designer all the way to the client.

I welcome the chance to being exposed to many challenges, looking forward to being involved in projects in a multidisciplinary setting that include all facets of design.

At this point in my career, I have obtained a few years of work experience, both during my years as a student, and upon my graduation two summers ago. I have come to realize that experience means nothing without the willingness to learn. I am always ready for a new lesson, a new take away, and slowly realizing that being receptive to new experiences will open doors you never knew were there.

The past couple of years have been fulfilling; full of learning opportunities I could never have imagined, and it is only the beginning of my journey, and my career as a professional in the field of architecture. I am ready to immerse myself in new and different opportunities and excited to find the next adventure.
