Architect, BIM Manager, Team leader at Isdefe. With a management-oriented career, I have worked in different sectors for more than twenty years, but always using the language of infrastructures as a transmission
vehicle. In 2009, I approached BIM for the first time, and knew, at a glance, that it was a must within AEC sector. I entered BIM through a self-paced route, and led my company into the BIM experience. However,
a few years ago I received a more formal education, after which I have combined my tasks as an Architect, with those of BIM consultancy services for my clients. I have also initiated a new teaching adventure
with Editeca, taking advantage of the high expertise my company, Isdefe, has given me in Public Contracting, combining both fields, BIM and contracting, in a subject of Editecas´ Master in BIM Management. In
my day to day, management of human resources for the optimal development of the tasks is my permanent challenge, looking for, through the best assignment of tasks, the greatest professional and personal development
of each individual of the team. I tend to work out Ideas with the team, and try not to lose from site the big picture; what I most value in a team is harmony, and empathy. I really enjoy starting new projects,
and I always look for potential in my colleagues. Currently I am exploring new ways of management in order to better adapt BIM in our daily pace. I have been studying lean, as well as agile methodologies, in
order to be more effective for our clients, most of which are from the Defense and Security environment, so breaking their inertia in order to help them grow is a permanent target for me. My professional experience
and my personal circumstance, have given me a versatility and adaptability that allow me to deal with a multitude of environments. I started teaching while I was a student, and kept doing it until present day,
as a side activity. I believe teaching is the best way to stay connected to the real world, not only through investigation, indispensable if you want to teach at a high level, but also because it keeps you in
contact with the people that are willing to learn, thus, the people that are exploring the future. In the last 20 years I have mainly worked as an architect, as well as a consultant I always search creativity,
I believe it has not relationship with art (at least not only) but with the capacity of solving problems through an open-minded path. I intend to make work easier for the people around me and I also aim to help
my clients achieve their goals with efficiency and effectiveness.
