I am a landscape architect working on the development of projects for public squares and urban spaces since 2025, the year I graduated. I work on the technical development of projects, including paving details, vegetation specifications, and the definition of urban furniture, always in compliance with ABNT standards. I also produce realistic renderings of the designed environments, contributing to a clear and sensitive visualization of the spaces prior to execution. My projects focus on enhancing the quality of the urban environment and strengthening the relationship between people, the city, and nature. I aim to create more inclusive, functional, and welcoming spaces, promoting greater accessibility and encouraging the democratic use of urban environments.
