About 

PERSONAL STATEMENT

Throughout my life and development within the field of architecture I have consistently chased the idea to question existent realities, always with the vision to add another layer of significance to what i put my hands on. I consider the process of concretizing a vision, an act of rebellion, a cult of optimism, a desire for dialogue and conversation and the ability to learn from failure.

I express my motivation and passion to architecture through the assemblage of its pieces into a harmonic totality that maximizes its impact on its surroundings.
