About me

A bit about me:

Me at the magnificent gardens of the Villa D'Este,
located in Tivoli, small town near Rome, Italy

Name:  Kamilah (everyone calls me "Kami") 

Hometown:  San Juan, Puerto Rico

Current city:  Miami, FL, USA

Zodiac sign:  Leo

Languages I speak:  Spanish, English, Portuguese

Languages I'm learning:  Japanese, Italian

Countries I have been to (so far!):  Bahamas, British Virgin Islands, Canada, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, England, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, United States 


I love meeting new people from all over the world.  I am a tenaciously curious person.  I love immersing myself in the culture of where I travel to and always do what I can to "blend in" by learning some of the local language, the customs, and try as many of the local delicacies as I can.

I am very outdoorsy and live a very active lifestyle here in Miami.  I love learning about culture and history.  I usually "nerd out" at museums.  Traveling and constantly learning/absorbing new things are  one of my biggest passions  in life.  For this, I must thank my parents, who always encouraged my sister and I to always get out there and explore and in the meantime try to give back somehow!

I am also extremely passionate about architecture and architecture design (this is what I just graduated from at the University of Miami School of Architecture).  What I love about architecture is that we have the privilege and the responsibility to positively impact people's everyday lives.  I want to design inclusive architecture that engages the community through social urbanism.  I believe in the power of design thinking and want to find integrated solutions for today's and tomorrow's problems through architecture/urban design and creativity!


One of my favorite quotes:

"Climb so you can see the world, not so the world can see you" - David McCullough Jr.
