While studying art and celebrating my free spirit in the University of Puerto Rico, I was introduced to architecture.  I learned about the art, the abstract, the psychological aspects and how it all affected a design.  I found it fascinating!

When in Brasilia, there, on a mural on the National Congress building, a sketch illustrated the seminal concept that organized the capital; a simple sketch, two lines and a circle.  The thought of how this diagram defined and impacted an entire country blew my mind.  In that moment, everything made sense as I walked through the city and the sketch came to life.  I was overwhelmed by an immense sense of responsibility and finally understood that as an architect I had an opportunity to change and impact lives.   That remains my inspiration on every project.

I was raised to be myself, to be generous in word and action.  Everyone deserves the best of who we are.  I bring this way of life to the workplace which makes communications effective and honest.  In a discipline where everyone can contribute towards the project, being able to understand and fully empathize with my client and my coworkers creates the perfect atmosphere for great projects.
