Resilience & Adaptation Lead

Patricia Matamoros was born in Caracas, Venezuela. She studied architecture at the Universidad Central de Venezuela, where she graduated with honors. After working in the field for five years, she decided to pursue a Master of Landscape Architecture. This change in course was driven by her love for her hometown, her interest in sustainability and her belief in the importance of recovering spaces for public enjoyment.

After moving to Miami in 2017, she finished her studies at Florida International University where she was valedictorian of her class. As an associate at SMDS, Patricia has a keen eye and the curiosity of an academic, always thinking of innovative solutions that preserve design quality but maximize functionality. Her years of international practice in architecture has helped her to swiftly become an accomplished landscape architectural designer.
