This semester as an intern, I gained practical experience in developing projects for competitions. These projects varied in scale and program, including a swimming pool, a school, a library, and collective housing, with different materials and construction systems, providing a multifaceted experience.The ability to synthesize information, manage time, and work in a team were undoubtedly part of this learning process, which I consider highly valuable. I was responsible for developing 3D models, images, and axonometrics. However, given the small team size, I was able to collaborate in some way on all stages of the process.www.agoraarquitectura.com

I was the founder and designer at Crua Studio, where I worked for nearly 10 years with total dedication to the business. During this time, I acquired a wide range of experiences that go far beyond design. Managing a company, even a small one, provided me with valuable skills in areas such as business management, strategic communication, client prospecting, and project planning. In addition to these competencies, I also developed the ability to make assertive decisions, manage resources efficiently, and lead a team.The experience of running a studio also taught me the importance of adaptability, finding creative solutions to daily challenges, and maintaining a long-term vision, balancing the creative side with the practical and financial demands of the business. Additionally, I honed my skills in hands-on tasks like carpentry.This journey has given me a deep understanding of how a business operates and the importance of every detail for its success, something I believe can positively contribute to new professional opportunities.//"Crua Design is a creative studio that emerged in 2014 as a result of experimentation with discarded and unusual materials. We seek simplicity and sophistication through a pure and truthful design. A contemporary brand, Crua Design values the quality of local raw material and labor, connects with the whole world and converses with the fashion, design, architecture and visual arts industries. The studio delivers the concept of upcycling, giving materials a new meaning, but also transforming the look we project onto what is fashion and design. Always with a sensitive close look, we develop products with reused and unusual materials. We see the use of discarded materials as a challenge to our creativity. In abandonment we see potencial, a hidden possibility of creation and transformation."See more: www.instagram.com/crua.design
