About 

I'm a citizen of the world. Originally born in Venezuela, I also grew in the United states, Italy and Mexico, where I eventually graduate from Architecture school in Mexico City. 

After graduation I moved to California and have been using my skills working as a freelance designer. My true passion is for urban design and everyday I focus on learning and practicing my digital skills. I could talk for hours about what makes cities great and how to improve them through public space and sustainable design.
