I am a peruvian architect, from the Ricardo Palma University. I started on tensile structures in 2002. At the end of my career I was offered to participate as a chief of practice in the Special Structures class, dictated by Eng. Roberto Machicao, this class made emphasis on the study of tensile structures, by working on scale models. In parallel I was invited to participate in the Structures I class, dictated by Arch. Aurora Perez, pioneer in the design of fabric architecture in Peru, she gave me the chance to join CIDELSA in 2004. And as a Senior Architect since 2007. I´m responsable of the tensile structures architectural design for Perú, Chile and Argentina markets. My role is to lead our architects team in the creation and development of projects, from the conceptual design to the membrane and structure detailing, to guide the engineers with the structural configuration, supervising the patterning drawings and the fabric production. I work side by side with the commercial department, attending directly the clients and asigning priorities in order to attend them as best we can. We have developed over 400,000 sqm including Stadiums, Malls, Metro stations, etc.
