I was born and raised in the small paradisiac country of eternal spring, GUATEMALA. A country of high contrast, strong identity but above all a land of diversity. I am an enthusiastic, dynamic person who is eager to learn new things and seeks to work in interesting, creative and innovative projects.
I’m an architect graduated from Francisco Marroquín University in Guatemala City, class of 2011. Among my professional interest are design strategies, interior design, visualisation and design in it´s various scales, ranging from construction detailing to urban planning. I strongly believe that it is through the coordination and collaboration that a creative, original well designed product can be obtained, where each participant plays a key role in the final product. I’m convinced that design can shape and improve the quality of life of human beings and its surroundings.
Besides design I have a strong passion for travelling, learning about diversity, cultures and meeting new people along the way. I’ve currently found a new interest in documenting my on-going travel experiences through writing. Also, I enjoy documenting data and creating graphic material to illustrate and share my interests, thoughts and adventures. I believe that in every country, culture and person there is world to know which can open new possibilities and ways of thinking.
