Manuel was drawn to architecture for the way it plays a key role in everyone’s lives. He enjoys the creation of the conceptual broader vision and bringing it to fruition through construction across projects of all scales and settings. From infrastructural to political, regional to international, his projects all contain highly complex programs while considering context, technology, and nature.
Believing that architecture is at its best when contributing meaningfully to communities, Manuel has relished working on a range of work from community centers and high-rise office towers to U.S. embassies and water treatment plants. His commitment to helping communities access design is what drives his practices.
Manuel is a skilled Architect and Project Manager who’s forward thinking, focus on design and clear communication, quickly establishes trust with clients, consultants and colleagues. “To me, how we work is just as important as the project work itself.”
