Even before working as a drafter of small custom homes in the Los Angeles area while attending the University of California, Fernando loved sketching buildings and sections. He eventually worked his way into the Architectural and Engineering industry in San Diego where he gained experience working in an office environment as part of a large production team focusing on large scale medical, commercial, and institutional projects. Familiarized with hospitality, commercial tenant improvements, and high-end custom homes, Fernando has experience in overseeing production staff, coordinating with consultants and governing agencies, and Construction Administration. Fernando pays great attention to detail and has a growing appreciation for architectural history and design approaches, which is evident in his work.
