about me

Welcome to a book that tells who I am

through images. I believe graphic design is

an art that requires the awareness and use

of different senses combined with imagina-

tion. I believe that the hearing, seeing, and

absorbing the world out there is the foun-

dation to any effective design. But all that

is not enough withouth actually “putting

hands on” and exploring different possibili-

ties until getting the perfect one that works.

I hope you enjoy my portfolio and feel free

to contact me for your next project!
