My name is Isabel Jubes-Flamerich. From here, you can access my Design Portfolio,

I hold a professional bachelor’s in architecture from Universidad Central de Venezuela, a master’s in architecture and environmental design from UC Berkeley’s College of Environmental Design, and a minor in computer analysis and programming from Universidad José María Vargas. These academic achievements, along with additional post-graduate studies and certifications, have enriched my passion for design, community service, and climate awareness.

I’ve worked on a diverse range of projects in both California and abroad, serving as a licensed architect in Venezuela and fulfilling roles such as Project Designer, Job Captain, and Green Rater in California. Recently, I have been an associate instructor of architecture at community colleges while continuing my lifelong commitment to designing, building, and advocating for a more sustainable and equitable world.

As an experienced educator, writer, public speaker, and community organizer, I advocate for equity, education, and environmentally friendly practices. My background as a designer spans various media, including architecture, planning, graphic design, web design, and BIM. I’m also a certified Green Building Professional and Green Points Rater with extensive experience in sustainable projects.

My strengths include excellent communication skills, especially through bilingual educational and cultural audio productions. I am a thorough planner, a creative problem-solver, and a disciplined multitasker, known for leading both youth and professional teams through complex design and construction projects with attention to detail and efficiency.
