About 

I am a register Architect in El Salvador, now living in the U.S. working towards becoming a register Architect in this country.  
I am an organized person who believes in collaboration and success through a team. Architecture comes with a knowledge that impulses us to act as agents of change using architecture as an instrument to preserve, revitalize and create spaces that can improve society reinforcing bonds among people and with the natural environment.
