What I'm looking for

I’m seeking international remote, contract-to-hire, or relocation-sponsored architecture roles involving architectural design, BIM/CAD documentation, adaptive reuse, heritage conservation, and urban rehabilitation.

I lead LONGHI Arq&URB, delivering more than 20,000 m² of residential, commercial, and institutional projects from concept design through construction administration.

Since 2016, I’ve led Maranhão’s cultural heritage policy, coordinating conservation actions, technical reviews, and adaptive reuse proposals across 3,500 listed buildings in São Luís’ UNESCO World Heritage Site. I also developed programmes including Nosso Centro and Adote um Casarão to advance rehabilitation, reoccupation, and public-private partnerships in the historic centre.

I bring international practice experience from Corbis Global in Córdoba and teach architectural design, documentation, adaptive reuse, and urban conservation at UNDB. I work fluently in Portuguese, English, and Spanish with international teams across US, UK, and European time zones.
