Interior Designer and Instructor at LCI Education at LCI Education

About me

Hello aspiring designers!

I'm Joan, an architect by trade, an interior designer by experience, and an instructor by passion!

With a master’s degree in architecture and a DESS in Modern Architecture and Heritage from Université du Québec à Montréal, I've spent over 15 years crafting aesthetic spaces and bespoke furniture for clients across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and North America. Experienced in leading architectural projects from conception to execution, my designs have always been driven by a focus on the HUMAN and His ESSENCE as my primary inspiration.

Now based in Vancouver, I am dedicated not only to serving clients but also to mentoring future designers. Since 2021, I've been an instructor at LCI Education, blending my practical experience with my passion for teaching.

In my free time, you'll often find me painting commissioned art pieces…

Together, let's embark on a transformative learning experience. I look forward to connecting with you all and helping you unlock the boundless creativity that lies within you!
