About 

My journey in architecture began a decade ago, but it was the transformative seven years spent in São Paulo that shaped my career. Moving from my small hometown, I joined a team of seasoned corporate interior designers while completing my degree in the bustling metropolis.

Since 2017, I have immersed myself in designing and detailing offices—from my early days as an intern to navigating pivotal moments in my professional trajectory. Earning my Bachelor’s in Architecture and Urbanism amidst societal upheavals in 2020 was a period of profound personal and professional growth.

During this time, I honed my skills by crafting office spaces for industry leaders such as Netflix, McKinsey, Spotify, Playstation, LinkedIn, and others. Each project varied in scale and demanded innovative approaches, enriching my portfolio with diverse typologies. Constantly seeking avenues for improvement, I am deeply invested in expanding my knowledge and vision of the world. My passion lies in exploring possibilities that foster community enhancement through architecture.

Utilizing isometric drawings and vivid prototypes, I excel in visualizing concepts that cater precisely to user needs and breathe life into my designs. Leveraging advanced BIM software and creative tools has become second nature in realizing these visions. This narrative offers a glimpse into my journey thus far. I welcome the opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and explore new horizons together. Thank you for your time.
