Intern. Architect

Description of Duties:

Between November 2012 and January 2013 I have

done an internship at the United Nations Secre-

tariat in New York, in the Office of Central Sup-

port Services (OCSS). Specifically, I am working

for the Overseas Propierties Management Unit,

Facilities Management Services. During the three

months of work I have been in charge of concep-

tual and detailed design of three buildings for

a new International Criminal Tribunal in Arusha,

Tanzanya.

Description of Achievement:

I’ve been able to develop the knowledge gained

in recent years in an international and multi-

cultural team. This has given me a new perspec-

tive on the analysis, research and problem sol-

ving of territorial, urban and architectural. In

this regard, I have successfully completed the

work required for the project described, acti-

vely working on the conceptual design and de-

tail: conceptual schemes, plans, sections, ren-

derings, infographics.

Sbr11 arquitetos 2011-2012 Sevilla, Spain and São Paulo, Brazil



To “sbr11 arquitetos, engenheiros e consultores”

I worked as a technical assistant to the company

during its implantation in the city of São Pau-

lo, Brazil. The company is officially established

in Brazil since May 2012. Since then I have wor-

ked for “sbr11” in national tenders for the FDE

(Foundation for the Development of Education),

SEF (Superintendent of Phisical Space Universi-

ty of São Paulo) and University of Campinas. In

addition, I participated in the conceptual idea

and the detailed design of a regional and urban

strategy for a health city in a region of 500,000

people in Brazil. On the other hand, I have also

assisted in the preparation of presentations gi-

ven by the architectural office for Foreign Trade

Agency of Andalusia in Spain with the intention

of setting an example to other companies in the

field of architecture and implementation for in-

ternationalization in the Brazilian market.


The greatest achievement that I’ve gotten to

sbr11 has been the implementation of the company

in Brazil. It started a long way from working

for “Orfila11 architects” and which has finally

been possible. This work has allowed me to get

to know the architect’s work in an international

environment where I had to adapt the knowledge

acquired in Spain to the local situation in Bra-

zil. On the other hand, I’ve managed to acquire

work skills to develop in a competitive interna-

tional environment. I also learned to can deal

with an international environment dynamically

adapting to the needs and requirements specific

to a country with a different culture. Despite

the problems and difficulties I have always tried

to work with the idea that with a positive at-

titude you can achieve anything we set. I have

great motivation for the development work on it

in an international environment. Nevertheless,

passionately desire to keep growing professio-

nally and personally with the illusion of travel

and work.

ternational tenders, with the preparation of the

conceptual idea, use and function, design of

construction details, general budgets. I have

also been responsible for multilateral tenders

During my work on “Orfilla11 arquitectos” I ma-

naged to work in different departments of the

company which has given me a broad view on it.

Participation in the work described above has

been highly satisfactory to me, getting to make

important contributions to the projects carried

out both in its conceptual idea and organization

and in the development of technical details. In

each of the departments (national tenders, mul-

tilateral tenders, international development and

marketing) have made significant achievements.

The work done in the development of technical

proposals of projects for national competitive

tenders allowed me to acquire a great professio-

nal competence and mastery over matter: concep-

tual idea, use and function, design of construc-

tion details, general budgets. I’ve also gotten

evaluate the ideas and experiences of others,

with a great willingness to learn from others

architects team components. I also managed ski-

llfully handle some software necessary for the

development and presentation or exhibition of

the different phases of architecture and urban

design: architectur revit, autocad, photoshop,

in-design, prezi,presto.

The work in the marketing department have led

me, among other things, to direct the design of

the website “Orfila11 architects” (www.orfila11.

es)and the translation of this site into diffe-

rent languages (English and Portuguese) . To do

this I have had the opportunity to work with a

team of specialists dedicated to multimedia and

web development. This has shown me that I am

able to adapt to work especificamentes areas not

belonging to my profession of architect.

participated in the project management of some

cific problems of the work of connstrucción and

their efficient solution. I am proud of the work

and achievements of the team that developed the

rehabilitation projects, and we work efficiently

During my work in the company “M&T ingeniería

acústica e instalaciones” worked on reform pro-

jects of commercial and apartments. Here I have

made drafting and design minor details solving

ding to the building codes. On the other hand,

have made measurements of all items for execu-

ting the work and the preparation of the budgets

Universidad Federal de Viçosa2007-2008

Viçosa. Brazil

Intern


During my stay at the Department of Architecture

and Urbanism of the University of Viçosa, Bra-

zil, I have participated in the research project

on the revitalization of the old railway line

from Viçosa. For this project I made collection

of historical information, technical reports

search for information related to the rail net-

work, photographs and measurements of the most

troubled areas of intervention. Finally we de-

velop an urban recovery of the former railway

line from the city proposed the installation of

a tram and a bike lane that could solve important

problems of traffic in the city and the urban re-

gion. On the other hand, I have been an assistant

in the academic work of Professor Ítalo Itamar

Caixeiro Stefan, assisting in the preparation of

submissions for the development of exhibitions

and conducting classroom visits and field inspec-

tions to new locations proposed for the develo-

pment of projects by students.

been efficient in meeting commitments, deadlines

and results achieved, showing always a great mo-

tivation and always willing to learn others. On

the other hand, I have learned to work in other

cultural and social environment different from

with ease. This has allowed me to adapt to city

life and country. In this way I have learned to

value the benefits of geographic mobility acqui-

ring international experience and work experien-
