I was born and raised in Juárez, what used to be one of the world's most dangerous cities, but I never let that deter my dream of becoming a stellar graphic designer. When I was in High School, I taught drawing classes to my classmates as a volunteer teacher. I graduated with honors from The University of Texas at El Paso, where I also spent 4 years as an in-house designer. After graduation, I moved to New York City to try my luck, and landed a job on Broadway, where I spent 2 years designing everything for multiple events, including Playbills, print ads and social media ads.
Because of the pandemic, I couldn’t renew my visa to stay in NYC. What I thought was a curse turned out to be a blessing. I became a Digital Nomad, living all over the world in cities like Madrid, Seoul, and finally settling in Mexico City with my wife. During this last 5 years, I've worked remotely for 2 companies, where I designed over a thousand social media ads, perfected my motion graphics skills, and became a Sr. Designer.
