Summary

Since I was a kid , I was very curious on why things around me look the way it look. TV, illustrated books and the statues in my hometown. That leaded me to study in one of the most artistic cities in the world, New York. Where I get a BFA degree in Illustration Major in 2020 at School of Visual Arts. With the pass of the time I could develop a portfolio where I show my commitment , passion and accomplish graphic artist, illustrator, and storyboard artist. My diverse skill set and experience make me an ideal candidate for any creative project. With a strong foundation in visual storytelling, I possess the ability to bring ideas to life through captivating illustrations and dynamic designs.
