Seidy Reyes

Seidy Reyes finds inspiration and motivation in activities such as the planning and development of mixed-use and commercial projects. Reyes' design style is adaptable and versatile. Furthermore, her strong interest in model-making helps her visualise and explain architectural concepts effectively.

Since beginning her journey at Ravensbourne University, London she has been able to gain further skills that have helped her in her pursuit of becoming an architect. These skills include a better understanding of architectural history, model making, and rhino use. Reyes has also improved her speaking and presentation abilities by having the opportunity to appear in front of colleagues as well as other organisations and practices.

Reyes is bilingual and speaks both Spanish and English well, which has helped her with her education and networking with people from various backgrounds. This talent improves her capacity to operate in a variety of cultural circumstances, particularly in cities where multiple cultures coexist.
