Carlos Gamez Ruiz

Biography
I started my journey in the career of Architecture in Mexico, the country where I was born and raised. I graduated from the Cajeme’ Technical Superior Institute (ITESCA) with a Bachelors degree in Architecture in 2005 with a major in architectural design.

In 2015 I graduated from a Master Degree program in Environment Management with Majoring in Renewable Resources.

A year before, in 2014, I moved to Canada and I started working with Berry Architecture + Associates, shortly after I started to enhance my knowledge about the extreme cold climate and acquire special interest in the Building Envelope field. I obtained my license as an Architect through the Broadly Experienced Foreign Architects (BEFA) validating my 10 years of experience from Mexico.

In order to enhance my knowledge about energy efficiency strategies considering building performance I also acquired my certification as Passive House Designer.
