I Iike making all kinds of stuff (preferably by hand), using all kinds of materials (preferably unexpected ones), in all shapes and sizes.

I was born in Mexico City and have lived in Argentina, Mexico, Australia, the United States, England, Ireland and Germany.
I currently live and work in Berlin, Germany.

My interest in the spaces we make and inhabit was sparked by my childhood investigations of the hallucinatory paintings of Remedio Varo, a Swiss/Mexican whose father was an engineer. My sensitivity to our built environment was heightened by growing up in a house designed by Nathaniel Owings, of SOM.

I attended high school at Kingswood/Cranbrook which shares a campus with the Cranbrook Academy of Art in the United States. My interest in urbanism, architecture and design was consolidated by that environment: everything was carefully considered, from dormitory bed-side tables to the location of buildings on landscaped grounds.

I graduated from Williams College in Williamstown, MA as a studio art major and completed my studies at the Architectural Association in London. Early work experience included two years at the Guggenheim Museum (New York), brief stints at David Chipperfield (London) and Murray O’Laoire Architects (Cork), and art direction for the feature-length, independent film A Woman in the Moon (first place at the Avignon Film Festival in 1995).
