With rose-tinted glasses of optimism and creativity, I'm on a mission to make tomorrow brighter than yesterday. As a dedicated multidisciplinary designer, I hold a Master of Architecture and a Bachelor's of Architecture degrees from California Baptist University and an Associate’s degree with Certificates in Architecture Design and CAD from Citrus Community College. I am passionate about infusing sustainability and innovation into every project, crafting vibrant stories beyond traditional spaces.
My journey has provided me diverse experiences in freelance design, architecture internships, graphic and event design, and interior design. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I bring a wide range of skills across various design disciplines and software, including Revit, Rhino, Grasshopper, Maya, SketchUp, AutoCAD, Enscape, TwinMotion, Lumion, QuickBooks, Adobe Creative Suite, Google Suite, and Microsoft Office.
In addition to my professional work, I've held leadership roles with the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA) and the American Society of Engineers and Architects (ASEA), where I've had the opportunity to mentor and collaborate on meaningful projects. My work has also been recognized in publications such as Archinect and Dezeen.
I am passionate about blending eco-conscious design with creative solutions to create enduring spaces that inspire and uplift communities. Whether architecture, interior design, or any multidisciplinary project, I strive to bring happiness and sustainability to every endeavor, one eco-friendly design at a time.
