After obtaining my Bachelors degree in architecture from the Universidad de los Andes, in Bogotá, and as a result of winning a national competition, I founded a practice alongside two other colleagues. During my four years at CFA, I was directly involved in a wide array of projects including a sport facility, housing, retail, hotel, industrial, offices and renovations. Being the cofounding partner of a practice allowed me to oversee different stages of the design and construction process, strengthened my sense of responsibility and heightened my social skills, allowing me to effectively communicate with clients, contractors and peers.
I am highly passionate about design, which is why I decided to continue my professional education at the post-graduate level in the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at Columbia University. I graduated from the MSc in Advanced Architectural Design on May 2016.
