about me
Research interests encompass the relationship between architecture,
infrastructure,
spatial appropriation,
projected indeterminacy,
materiality,
and transformations of existing conditions.
M.Sc. in Urbanism at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), with CNPq scholarship, and the masters thesis Architecture as infrastructure and architecture of Infrastructure: Indeterminacy in Peripheral Space through the Railway Stations of Rio de Janeiro.
B.Sc. in Architecture and Urbanism at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and academic exchange at the Politecnico di Milano (Italy), with the bachelor project The Limit of the Limit. An Essay on the Territory of Via Light.
Substitute Professor at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (FAU/UFRJ), from 2023 to 2025, teaching within Atelier Aberto, a collaborative design studio focused on architecture as a material practice and on engaging with small-scale conditions.
Professional practice focuses on architectural design, with experience in commercial interiors and projects for retail and franchise networks across Brazil. The fast-paced nature of commercial projects has fostered an approach centered on simple and efficient solutions, while remote collaboration and coordination of complementary disciplines have strengthened an interest in working with existing conditions.
