I am a Doctoral Fellow at the Institute of Landscape and Urban Studies (LUS) at ETH Zürich, bringing a background in design, education, and writing to my research on the mass housing landscapes of Berlin. Before joining ETH, I was an adjunct professor at the University of Houston. I hold degrees in architecture, urban design, and planning from Rice University and TU Berlin, where I taught and researched in various assistant positions.
My academic journey has been supported by fellowships from Fulbright at UC Berkeley and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Further grants and fellowships supported studies at the Universidade de Lisboa, Tongji University in Shanghai, and the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal. I have also had the privilege of publishing my work in journals such as Pidgin, OASE, PLAT, trans, Room One Thousand, CoSMo, City, Culture & Society, and Paprika!
My experiences as a designer encompass architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design firms in Houston, Berlin, and Lisbon. More recently, Lulu Crouzet and I cofounded the collaborative Deux.
