About
I am continually seeking opportunities for professional growth and am eager to contribute my skills to dynamic teams. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I seized the opportunity to work on boats, a longstanding ambition of mine. This experience enabled me to embark on global travels, enriching my appreciation for diverse architecture and cultural details. My professional aspiration is to specialize in the field of yacht interiors. My time spent understanding boat ergonomics has significantly heightened my passion for crafting exceptional spaces within confined layouts and maximizing spatial utilization. Throughout my academic studies, I found work opportunities in the UK and Spain that immersed me into the worlds of classical home interiors, opulent interiors of superyachts, and the artistic and practical side of festival stage design.
