Hi, my name is Nelson. I'm an architect in the low 30s. I have a small architecture and interior design firm the Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. I started this company 5 years ago in Santo Domingo, along with my wife, then girlfriend. She is an architect too. We started the firm in a tiny studio at her parent's house. Then, after one year, we leased a small 9 sqm office and incorporated a third partner and our first employee. In those first 3 years, we focused on renovating old hotel spaces, like restaurants, rooms, bars and spas. But in the year 2014 we got the opportunity to design the interior spaces of our first hotel, located in Montego Bay, Jamaica. I traveled constantly to Jamaica, for 3 years until the project was finished, and my wife and the other partner at the firm, handled the other minor projects in Punta Cana. At the end of the year 2015, we got a contract to design the interior spaces of a new hotel in Punta Cana. Our first new hotel. It was a landmark for us. We felt the pressure that came along with a project of this magnitude, but at the same time, we knew that we had an opportunity that few people have. Right now, and 3 years later, we are finishing the construction of the project and we are very glad with the results, and the client is very pleased with the design we developed for his hotel.
Right now, I'm interested in growing the company's clientele and also, automatizing the majority of the design and execution process. I know that in this field is not possible to automatize every process, because designing and supervising is something that computers still cannot do, but if I can improve my response time, quality and practicality of the majority of the process, I think the clients will come by word of mouth.
Also, I would like to use my company as a VC generator for my other ideas. We would like to launch a furniture line, design and build houses for the poor, improve peoples lives with apps and services that our country currently is lacking of.
