My passion for architecture was ignited long before I fully understood its essence. It began with countless hours behind the camera lens, roaming around the city of Santo Domingo and discovering all the history that its buildings and streets could offer me. Each photograph, a window to the world I aspired to be part of one day.
Throughout my professional career, I have dedicated myself to perfecting my skills. Working in challenging and diverse environments, has helped me fo- cus more on time management, problem solving and maintaining team spirit.
Beyond the aesthetics and functionality of architecture, my passion lies in its potential to positively impact phenomena, such as well-being and mental health. For me, architecture is not just about creating spaces; it is a profound purpose, mission and way of life.
My architectural journey is a continual quest driven by a passion for shaping spaces and crafting experiences. Beyond traditional architecture, I’m drawn to furniture and interior design, and the nuanced world of architectural finishes and materials. Committed to broadening my horizons, I immerse myself in diverse perspectives and methodologies, seeking to enrich my understan- ding of holistic design practices. With each endeavor, I remain dedicated to architecture as a profound purpose and way of life, contributing to the transformative power of design in our built environment.
I am always open to new experiences and eager to explore new places and different means of expression of creativity, which allows me to continue learning and growing in the field of architecture and design in general.
Estudio AG Arquitectos, Santo Domingo, DO, Project Architect
As a project architect, my role revolves around overseeing the entire lifecycle of construction projects, right from conception to completion. I collaborate closely with clients to deeply understand their needs and aspirations, translating their vision into tangible architectural designs. My responsibilities encompass creating detailed project plans, managing resources and budgets, and ensuring strict adherence to regulatory standards and building codes.
Throughout the design development phase, I leverage my creative expertise to craft innovative solutions that not only meet but exceed client expectations. I lead a team of professionals, coordinating with engineers, consultants, and contractors to integrate various systems seamlessly into the architectural design.
During the construction phase, I take on the mantle of a vigilant overseer, conducting site visits, resolving design conflicts, and ensuring that the project progresses smoothly while maintaining the integrity of the original design. Communication is key in my role; I serve as the primary liaison between clients, stakeholders, and project team members, facilitating collaboration and ensuring everyone is aligned with project goals.
Ultimately, my objective as a project architect is to deliver exceptional architectural projects that not only stand as a testament to innovation and creativity but also fulfill the functional and aesthetic needs of the client and the community.
