Professional Life
I am a Senior Art Director currently working remotely from Puerto Rico with a background in retail web design and branding. My goal has always been to create visually compelling designs that have a specific intent and achieves a purpose. I love designing, but being in the position as an Art Director to create a concept and then help all the different parts come together and bring that concept to life has been truly rewarding.
I have a talent for understanding what people want, specifically non-creatives, and delivering content in the most effective manner to meet those objectives. This and my creative eye have attributed to my success as an Art Director and the value I can bring to any company.

It’s not just what I do, but how I do it.
In an ever-changing and competitive world it is often critical to be agile, adapting to changing goals and producing work at a rapid pace. I have always stood out among the crowd with my ability to think quickly and produce high volumes of quality work in very short time periods.
Personal Life
​
When I'm not at work or traveling, I like to explore different avenues of creativity. I've dabbled in photography, painting, illustration, paper quilling, glass etching, knitting, sewing, shoe decorating (ask me about my Warriors shoes), lettering, video editing, paper crafts, fruit carving, and so many pinterest crafts (successes and failures) I can't keep count.
