About me
During the course of my career, I have worked and collaborated with important cultural institutions such as the Barbican Center, Saatchi, Leeds Art Gallery and others. Alongside culture, I have also worked in the commercial sector to deliver innovative creations for Nike, Prada, Johnnie Walker, Ferragamo, Moschino, BMW, UNKLE, Pernod Ricard, as well as complex architectural projects for the Madison Square Garden. Working with these outstanding organizations and brands, developed my passion, skills, and determination to achieve great projects and permitted the achievement of challenging but fulfilling experiences. Most of my work and practice has taken place in London and Mexico City, where I have been part of large scale projects and formed part of teams of people from diverse backgrounds and culture.
