Influenced by her Brazilian heritage and her mother’s career in architecture, Isabella was drawn to the field for its mix of creativity and problem-solving. Her interest in socially responsible design deepened through her work with School the World, where she contributed to building schools in underprivileged communities, seeing firsthand how well-design spaces can empower and uplift.
As a designer intern, Bella is excited to apply her background in community-focused design and urban analysis to her work. She thrives in iteration-based design and conceptual storytelling, using both to shape thoughtful, impactful spaces.
Outside of architecture, Bella has a love for Brazilian culture, music, and food—if she’s wearing headphones, she’s probably listening to something from home. She has also worked as a travel nanny for actors, competed in the World Championship for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and shares her life with her Yorkie, Bel.
