My fascination with architectural ecrepression was very intuitive from the beginning. Attending the ARCHIKURS drawing course encouraged me to deepen my knowledge and begin my path to understanding architecture through contemporary studios such as Zaha Hadid Architects, David Chipperfield Architects, and great architects of the past such as Oscar Niemayer and Antonio Gaudi.

My adventure with design began with motorization which was my passion from a young age, and I started creating along with my interest in photography, then I also realized that my interest was in design in a broad sense, not only in motorization, but also through the prism of objects, fashion and architecture. This is how I came to ARCHIKURS, and architecture became my passion and the basis through which I began to look at other areas of design. Here I also completed a workshop in car design with Maurizio Corbi Senior Designer of Pininfarina studio.

Wanting to follow my passion for architecture, I began studying at The University of Sheffield at Sheffield School of Architecture. Not only did my studies give me the freedom of expression, they also imparted to me the knowledge of the importance of context in designs and the essence of even the most expressive form as a product of people, place and building program. During my second year, I took part in the Lunawood Urban Challenge 2021 with friends from my studies, in which we won first place in the landscape category with the "meet me at the river" project. This gave me wings and since then I have been regularly trying my hand at architectural competitions, considering them not only as a brilliant architetonic challenge but also as a great opportunity for collaboration.

So far, I have participated in the Arctic Hotel (YAC) as well as the Iceland Greenhouse Restaurant competition organized by Bee Breeders, among others. In my third year, I was also one of the speakers at an international webinar on design with wood along with the rest of the team behind "meet me at the river" presenting alongside professionals and architects such as REM'A arquitectos.

I have always felt a constant need for self-development, and during the vacations I completed The Leadership Series course in order to better and more effectively be able to communicate within and outside of the team. In addition to architectural design, I am also interested in product creation and design. I am constantly trying to expand my skillset - the main programs I use at an advanced level are Adobe Creative Suite, Autodesk Revit, Rhinoceros and Twinmotion and at a beginner level grasshopper, I am constantly trying to expand my skillset by learning new skills - currently to start professional architectural visualization it is 3DS Max and Corona.

I am a student of the third and final year of the Bachelor of Architecture which I finish in May this year.
