I’m Rebecca, an open-minded and proactive architecture student with an international background. I have lived in Italy, Switzerland, and now Barcelona. My journey started as a competitive athlete, which taught me discipline, hard work, and determination. After focusing on sport for a long time, I decided to dedicate myself to my studies and take on new challenges. I am currently seeking a full-time position for approximately one year before starting another master’s program, and I’m open to longer-term opportunities as my plans evolve. I’m eager to contribute my skills and energy to a team while continuing to grow professionally. I bring hands-on experience in design, drawing, model making, and material experimentation from diverse studio environments. I’m accustomed to a collaborative, craft-oriented approach and have worked on projects across different design phases. I’m excited to apply my technical and creative abilities in a dynamic architecture or design team in Barcelona.
