On November 2019 I participated on my first board of directors meeting with LAGI. I was very excited to find a place where the joint between art, energy, architecture, landscaping and public space is a motor to think about the future of cities, energy and nature. The LAGI-Fly Ranch call is my first active and substantial involvement in this project that I've been following for about 10 years. I'm really looking forward.
