A brief presentatio of who I am
I am Juan García-Maestro Gil-Casares, 26 years of age, Architect. I consider myself as a very curious person, always in touch with my creative side as one of my hobbies is music since I was 12. I play the piano, the bass and now starting to learn the acoustic guitar. I have my own compositions and actually playing in a small Jazz Big Band in Madrid. Besides, I have been all my life practicing different sports: basketball, sailing, soccer and running, therefore, I do not consider myself as a sedentary person. I believe in hard work, team work and looking forward to discover and learn new things in 2017.
Born in 1991, I have attended the British Council School in Madrid from 1994 to 2009, with the exception of the academic year 2003/2004 living in Ringwood (UK), at Moyles Court School. Once finished school, I started my studies in Architecture the following year at University Ceu San Pablo until this day. The year 2013/2014, I applied to the Erasmus Exchange Program, for studying Architecture in Brussels at Université Catholique de Louvain-la-Neuve, Faculté LOCI.
Furthermore, I graduated as 'Batallion Adjutant' at Culver Military Summer Camps in Indiana (USA) the summers 2003/2005/2006/2007. Minor programs that I have done that have taken part in my education : a Photographic (both digital and analogical) 6-month program in 2009, a leadership program at CCL (Center for Creative Leadership) in summer 2016 and piano exams at ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music - UK) during 2003-2007.
