Academic, Director of the School of Architecture, Clemson University

I am an Architect. Engaged in computational design, digital fabrication, and the poetry of architecture. 

As a tireless advocate for the continual pursuit of innovation, I aim to stay curious and continue to push our understanding of form and automation, using parametric technology to engage, empower, and transform across multiple disciplines and scales.

I work as Clio steel’s architect, improving designs and services for our customers through computational approaches, standing up digital fabrication methods, creating and maintaining models, to develop retractable Roof systems and on-boarding new design sets.

I was the Co-founder at NOAH Architects, where we were engaging in different projects around the MENA region

Architect and interior designer based on the psychology of the environment.

For me, architecture has two ways of manifesting itself: Mimicking to go a little unnoticed, or contrasting with the environment, highlighting and saying that it exists with a new and functional design, it is for both reasons that I like architectural design, adding the appearance ecological design to coexist with the planet trying to avoid more pollution.

Less is more

My focus is sustainability in the design-built environment and urban planning. I am currently the Planning Head for Mixed Use, Townships and Retail Developments of Filinvest, one of the elaidng real estate developers in the Philippines. One of my main role is to review, and approve design submissions by consultans that we hire for our projects. I have more than 17 years of experience as an architect and masterplanner/environmental planner.

In my studio, we made a commitment to making cities better places to live. We believe that architecture and design matter, and that through our work, we can make a positive difference in the world. We strive to create buildings that are not just things in themselves but serve as catalysts for positive urban and social change.
