Responsible for the supervision of the design and/or construction and completion of buildings, parks, arenas, schools and markets.

My interests
- I am interested in learning new techniques, tools and trends for teaching on line
- I would like to develop a work about Art and Architecture in Mesopotamia and Mesoamerica, it is amazing how ziggurats and pyramids from those regions look alike, platforms, tiers, staircases, and temples on top to worship their Gods were some of the similarities, maybe Sunerians came to America in ancient times because they had enough knowledge to travel to distant lands, they even knew that earth had a spheric shape and that our planet was not the center of the solar system as people thought in the Middle Ages
- OERs,
- Networking with educators to share educational resources
Books I like
- The Fountainhead: Main Street.
- books I have read
Countries I have visited
