About

As a person I can describe myself as trustworthy, friendly, respectful with my coworkers, and I’m always open to establish personal relationships that go beyond the work environment, this has led to lifelong friendships and professional relationships that I cherish. As an architect I am a dedicated, resourceful, passionate about design, and a hardworking team player who is deeply committed with the assignment at hand and always runs the extra mile.

My collleagues say that I’m a leader, great communicator of ideas, innovative, reliable, proficient, competent, and they are always looking forward to include me in their teams, which has allowed me to learn to manage and make the best use of my time. The feedback has been consistent and very rewarding.
