"Creative Solutions, Quality Results"
I was born and raised in Colombia, where I developed an early passion for the arts. This passion led me to pursue a career in visual arts, a journey that began earnestly after I graduated from high school in 2008. The next significant milestone in my educational journey was obtaining a degree in Visual Arts from the prestigious Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá, Colombia, in 2016. The title I earned, "Maestro en Artes Visuales," marked the culmination of years of hard work, dedication, and creative exploration.
Early Career
My professional journey in the world of visual arts began even before I completed my degree. In 2010, I secured my first job as a photography assistant and editor. This role was a critical stepping stone, allowing me to develop my technical skills and gain practical experience in the field. Working closely with experienced photographers, I honed my ability to capture and enhance images, laying a strong foundation for my future career.

In 2012, I transitioned into the advertising industry, where I worked for an advertising company. This role broadened my understanding of visual communication and marketing, exposing me to the fast-paced world of advertising. Here, I learned to create compelling visual content that resonated with diverse audiences.
My career took a significant turn in 2019 when I joined a cultural heritage protection project with the British Council as a graphic designer. This role was particularly fulfilling as it allowed me to combine my passion for art with a meaningful cause. Working on this project, I created visual materials that helped preserve and promote cultural heritage, an experience that enriched my professional and personal life.

I worked as a visual artist, community manager, and researcher for SierraCoffee S.A.S, a coffee exporting company. This position allowed me to blend my artistic skills with my ability to manage social media and conduct research. It was a dynamic role that required creativity, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of the brand's identity and goals.
Simultaneously, I worked as a community manager and social media content creator for DIVEPRO, a scuba diving school. This role further developed my social media management skills and allowed me to create engaging content that attracted and retained followers.
Since 2017, I have also been working as a graphic designer for Gyrola Birding Hotel Boutique & Spa. In this role, I design visual content that enhances the hotel's branding and marketing efforts.
