The color and spectacle of Mexico's streets sparked my interest in community driven space and experience, a passion that I began to develop while studying architecture at Syracuse University and then at the Architectural Association School in London. Having been immersed in such a diverse array of lively environments, it would be impossible for me not to use these memories and experiences as inspiration for my work.

Briefs need limitations and invitations

I like entertainment and think mastery is good, though I don't feel like a master. If a theme means having a story that's legible, then that's certainly what we do. But we don't treat design as an add-on layer.

Every project is an opportunity to learn, to figure out problems and challenges, to invent and reinvent.

Portable designs have the power to transform unused public spaces into dynamic environments that build and invite communal experiences.

My work is strongly rooted in place and memory, in personal, formative experiences that took shape within very different environments.

In our highly mediated, technologically driven world, we're all looking for meaningful ways to connect. This has constantly inspired me to create environments full of lively, immersive, experiential elements specifically crafted to foster human connection.
