Structural Engineer with more than 20 years of experience working across New Zealand and Spain. After completing my Bachelor’s degree in Architecture in Argentina, I realized that my true passion lay in the structural aspects of design, which led me to continue my studies and obtain a Master’s degree in Structural Engineering in Barcelona.
This combined academic and professional background has given me a strong understanding of both architectural intent and structural performance. I am able to view projects from both perspectives, which allows me to develop structural solutions that enhance and support the architectural vision.
I approach each project with a practical, problem‑solving mindset, recognizing that every design presents its own unique challenges. I enjoy working collaboratively with the wider project team to explore options and deliver the most effective, efficient, and well‑integrated solution for each project.
During my professional experience in Spain, I worked on a broad range of architecturally focused projects, including office and residential buildings, sports facilities, hotels, schools, and entertainment venues. This experience strengthened my understanding of structural challenges across different sectors and enabled me to contribute effectively to the delivery of well-resolved, high-quality design outcomes. In New Zealand, I have continued to deliver significant design‑led and technically challenging projects.
