I am a designer and entrepreneur based in Los Angeles, California, specializing in architecture, software development and fashion design. I hold a Master's in Architecture from SCI-Arc, where I was honored with a master's thesis award for developing a prototype of AURA, an innovative AR-based urban planning and geospatial analysis platform. AURA has since evolved into a broader initiative, bringing advanced spatial simulation, data visualization, and XR tools across various industries, with a growing team focused on integrating augmented reality into urban planning and infrastructure projects.As a co-founder of Openended, a fashion brand working with 3D-printed jewelry and accessories, I have helped launch nine products, including four necklaces and two handbags. I managed the technical design and production of the pieces, bringing concepts to life as wearable art objects. Openended recently won an award for high-tech wearables from the A+D Museum LA. , and we have been included in Harper’s Bazaar and featured in Glitch Magazine.With experience in both large and small-scale architectural projects, I have contributed as a lead designer and independent contractor. I was the project designer of a new hospital wing in Echo Park, securing full funding through a California Department of Health Services grant for $18 Million. I also led the design of the Cole Sternberg Gallery, an adaptive reuse project with a focus on sustainable construction and reclamation. Currently, I also serve as an architecture professor at LATTC, where I teach sustainable building systems, landscape design, and advanced design studios with a focus on digital innovation, including parametric modeling, 3D printing, and AI workflows. My design philosophy is rooted in seamlessly integrating human-made structures with natural systems, balancing aesthetic desires with the functional harmony of our environment.
