My motivation in architecture stems from the challenge and excitement of developing meaningful projects. This drive has guided me since university and continues to shape my early career. I’ve explored a variety of methods and ideas, always seeking to push the boundaries of what architecture can achieve. My postgraduate work demonstrated that being adaptable and open to emerging themes in our field is not only possible but essential. For example, I developed a concept for vertical urban farming in the heart of Brussels, and in another project, I designed a floating mechanism to protect buildings from flooding in rainy areas of Buenos Aires. I’m grateful to have been mentored by inspiring individuals throughout both my studies and professional journey. As a designer, my priorities are flexibility and continuous learning. I value collaboration and team leadership, and I believe the strongest projects arise when a single idea is refined through collective effort. In my current work, I focus on how people engage with new ideas I bring to the table and how we develop those ideas into real, tangible outcomes. I aim to fully explore the potential of a concept to determine its success. I use a wide range of representational techniques to communicate my proposals—while hand drawing remains my primary expressive tool, I also maintain a strong foundation in digital media to support my creative process.
