Art communicates. As a visual development artist and communicator (both careers I graduated from) my main interest is to develop pieces that say something to the viewer. I’m flexible and adaptable, good learner and eager to expand my horizons within the field of creating images. On the other hand, I’m a firm believer of the importance of written communication as well, hence my second major, as such I have excellent written skills in both spanish and english. I’m fluent in both languages as well.

My main interest is visual development and all art related fields within the entertainment industry. I’ve loved video games and drawing since as long as I can remember and I wish to be able to always keep those two aspects together.
