About

Architect and urban designer based in Brussels with 10+ years of experience in both public administration and private practice. I specialize in public space design, technical detailing, and project coordination with strong expertise in urban planning procedures and public procurement. Adaptable and multilingual, I’ve managed projects across different cultural and legislative contexts in Europe and Latin America. Recently certified in BIM management (2025), I’m looking to contribute to forward-thinking projects with a strong focus on sustainability, urban quality, and collective intelligence.
