Bio

Victor Gorlach is an Architectural master’s candidate at the Bernard & Anne Spitzer School of Architecture at City College. He earned a B.A. in Economics from the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais in Brazil, where he harnessed an interest in how design can improve people’s lives and the injustices that arise from modern human organization. This past year, Victor has been researching health inequalities in Queens, studying neighborhood and lack of access to fresh, organic foods as part of a year long studio, titled “Studio 25 ‘Building Culture'” at Spitzer. Victor is most passionate about immersing himself in the communities he hopes to design for, and being that he was originally born in New York, is enlivened to be back in the city and is taking advantage of all the opportunities the city has to offer.
