About 

I am extremely passionate about creating interiors that promote creativity, mental, and physical wellness, while respecting and honoring our environments. I recently completed my Master of Professional Studies in Sustainable Interior Environments at the New York School of Interior Design and have a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture from Universidad Dr. Jose Matias Delgado.

My work experience includes: design concept and development, project management, space planning, 3D rendering, finish materials selection, and specifications documents, in commercial, retail, and corporate projects.
I believe that Interior Design is not only about building spaces but also about building relationships and sharing the influence and importance of the built environment with every client.
