What inspired you to want a life in Architecture and the creative industries?:
I was drawn to architecture because it combines thought, imagination, and action. I’m interested in how space can be a tool for transformation—social, ecological, and political—and how creative practices can open up more just, sensitive, and conscious ways of inhabiting the world

Who inspired you in finding your path to Architecture/Film and the creative industries?:
At first, I was inspired by art and design. As I learned more about architecture—its styles, programs, and social possibilities—I started to see it as a powerful medium for shaping how we live and relate to each other. Over time, I discovered architects who deeply influenced my path, especially Kazuyo Sejima and Lina Bo Bardi.
Sejima’s work inspires me through its subtlety and clarity—her ability to create spaces that are at once light, ambiguous, and emotionally resonant. There’s a delicate balance in her architecture that invites reflection and redefines how bodies move through space.
On the other hand, Lina Bo Bardi’s work taught me the importance of architecture as a cultural and social tool. Her commitment to public life, her integration of craft and popular culture, and her bold yet sensitive interventions continue to be a powerful reference. Both have helped shape the way I think about space—not just as form, but as a social and political force.

How you unlock obstacles and overcome bias in your work?:
I try to unlock obstacles by staying open to dialogue and multiple perspectives. When facing resistance or bias—whether external or internal—I take a step back to understand where it comes from and then look for ways to reframe the question or shift the approach. I’ve learned that flexibility, empathy, and persistence are powerful tools for moving through challenges

What improvements do you feel are required to promote effective change in the academic and working environment?:
To promote effective change, we need to question traditional hierarchies and open up spaces for dialogue, experimentation, and diverse forms of knowledge. Both academia and the professional world should be more inclusive—not only in terms of representation, but also in the methodologies and narratives we validate. Interdisciplinarity, equity, and care should be at the core of how we teach, learn, and practice.
