About

Gabi pursued her undergraduate architectural studies at the University of Virginia School of Architecture, where she also received a Master of Architecture Degree and a Certificate in Urban Design. Her zeal for design and the arts in many of its forms manifests itself through the joy of tackling projects across multiple scales—from handheld objects to buildings and master plans. Growing up both in the US and Ecuador with a double nationality, as well as studying abroad in Italy and Spain consistently exposed Gabi to multiple cultures throughout her life. This allowed her to develop a strong passion for sustaining people first and foremost, while she strives for her identity and experiences to fuel an empathic design approach and vision for the future.
