About 

Architect specialized in sustainable architecture with six years of professional experience in wellknown architecture studios. I have worked in the design of national and international architecture and urbanism proposals in many different countries such as Qatar, China, Ethiopia and Tunisia.
I consider myself an entrepeneur and hard-working person with great creativity, software and communication skills. I am used to working under pressure, focusing in an objective and developing technical projects with a high efficiency level.Besides, I have an excellent learning capacity and team oriented attitude.
My insight into the architecture social role allows me to keep on working with the objective of offering my experiences and knowledge to the human needs derived from the social and economic context.I am really looking forward to undertaking new architectural challenges that involve achieving more international experience.
