Profile
Hard working with an interest for solving problems, a passion for carrying out studies on
specific topics of interest and analysing situations. I have an interest in researching on
sustainability in the built environment. I have been built with knowledge, studies and work on
the area of low energy use in building design; with understanding and increased interest in
energy conservation and energy efficiency in buildings, as well as the factors involved in and
responsible for them as well as their consequences. My attention overtime is in a sustainable
built environment of energy conservation through passively enhanced thermal comfort and in
achieving that with the aid of adequate building simulation.
