ABOUT ME
I was born in May 12, 1992 in Salamanca, Spain. I attended Scondary and High Stydies at Maristas Champagnat, in Salamanca, obtaining my LOGSE (Upper Secondary School) diploma.
In 2010 I pass the University Admission Exam (PAU). Later that year, I enrolled in Architects and Urbanism degree at the University of Alcalá de Henares, in Madrid.
In September 2010, just after finishing high school, I started my studies in Architects and Urbanism (First cycle), a bachelor that lasts 5 years.
In 2013/2014 , in order to finish the credits I had left and to experience an international atmosphere, I enrolled as part of the ERASMUS program in the University of Lisbon. With full tuition in english and portuguese.
Still today, I consider that experience and that year as key to my professional and personal development. Learning portuguese and english, living in an international and young environment and experiencing the generosity of the portuguese people were some of the milestones of my career.
In September 2015, just after finishing my first cycle bachelor, I started my studies in Master in Architects and Urbanism (Second cycle) in the University of Alcalá de Henares (ETSAA, UAH, Madrid), a bachelor that lasts 1 years. In order to keep improving my capacities as an architects I start at interniship in 2015 in Ignacio Borrego's study, where I spezialiced myself in interiors design.
From September 2016 to March 2017 I was working as an intern in OOIIO Study in Madrid since May 2016 to keep improving my capacities as an architects. With this Study I have done execution work planes and we have work in competitions where I recieved a special mencion in the fifth competition of VIP lounge ARCO.
