Professional degree in Architecture, Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María
I have a professional degree in Architecture, specialized in computational design with experience in the industry and the academia. I am currently a M.S. in Design Computation graduate student at the Georgia Institute of Technology. My interest focuses on data-driven methods for architecture and design in general. I have the skills and experience to develop architectural projects at all stages, integrating specialized skills in design scripting, parametric modeling, custom tool, development, and data analytics.
I have been working as a Graduate Research Assistant at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) researching and developing advanced computational design methods for Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). I have also been a Teaching Assistant for the Vertically Integrated Project (VIP) Resilient and Healthy Buildings at Georgia Tech. Additionally, I am currently involved in the development of Outdoor+, a Grasshopper plugin using the urbanMicroclimateFoam solver from ETH Zurich.
