I've spent over a decade doing architecture in the Caribbean, most of it at Pulso Arquitectura — a firm I joined before graduating and where I've watched projects grow from the first sketch to the last coat of paint. More than 15 built works across residential, commercial, healthcare and institutional typologies — designing, managing, coordinating specialties, and standing on site when needed.
Outside the studio, you'll find me in the water. I've been swimming for ten years — pool and open water, up to 8 km. There's something in that rhythm that helps me think clearly. I'm also into tech, photography, and if you really want to find me, follow the trail to the best food in town. Or look for me on the dance floor: merengue, bachata, and the occasional salsa.
