About me
Since I discovered at an early age that Fashion design was –until then– my unconscious passion, it has taken the center and irradiate all aspects of my life. I would not realize the gift I had been given until I started illustrating my visions when I was 12 years old, driven by my endless curiosity and the need to create. The year I had the opportunity to travel abroad and first stablish my studies in Fashion completely made a positive change in me, learning the fundamentals of research and design, garment construction and line development, and even show management. When I moved to Spain, another field helped me deepen my social skills as well as making me understand the importance of group work. This is the case for Sport Sciences; while is not my main field, it is my life’s second crush, my hobby. Then, Fine Arts came into play, helping me refine my vision and better understand my surrounding. Here I expanded my abilities and learned new techniques related to Painting, Sculpture and Drawing –always leaning personal projects to my main field and remaining true to my vision– but most importantly, developing concepts based on intense research to assure their excellence, and learning how to successfully connect dots between ideation and production. ‘Wait, how is that your biggest goal is Fashion, then you studied Sports and now going to an Art school?’ a friend once asked me. I replied ‘Well, I just like being outside of the box, being versatile... if I want to learn about something I just go for it’ I am not afraid of the unknown, I am thirsty for deepening my knowledge, determined and committed to complementing it with whatever help makes it happen. I love technology and remain updated working with diverse design softwares such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere, SketchUp, ZBrush and CLO3D; expecting to manipulate many more due to their usefulness in achieving eye-catching results. The least thing I like is not doing anything, so you will likely find me either developing concepts and working on projects related to design (from fashion and spatial, to graphics and editorial), learning a new software, trying a new sculpting or draping technique, watching Netflix, paying my full attention to a podcast, or exercising and having a good time with my people.

    Warprint: The Consequences of War on SocietySince the beginning of humanity, war conflicts, motivated by various interests, have always been present. Throughout history, various events have triggered wars, some of which took up to a hundred years to end. The different wars between nations, and even populations and tribes, are based on achieving greater dominance of one over the other, and in which economic, power, ideological and / or territorial struggles end up causing innumerable damages.
