In My Own Words...
I am originally from El Paso, Texas and grew up in Juarez, Mexico. Mexican architecture has been a major influence in my design process. I am inspired by architects such as Luis Barragan and Oscar Niemeyer. The biggest and most rewarding challenge that I have encountered while working at Dyron Murphy Architects is the integration of modern architectural design with traditional Native culture.
