Designer

I am a freelance designer from Quito, Ecuador. I recently graduated from The University of Texas, where I received a bachelors de­gree in design. I enjoy practicing and learn­ing about several disciplines within the realm of design. Such as, graphic or visual communications, multimedia, pack­aging, and product or industrial design, to name a few. Also, ar­chi­tec­ture and fash­ion to a degree. I tend to be on the ambitious side and I love a good challenge and hav­ing inter­esting constraints. My ultimate goal is to become a successful 3D animator, concept artist and an overall versatile designer.

Thinker

I see design as a combination of disciplines used to­geth­er to form the “optimal” iteration of a solution that will cause someone's experience to benefit from its ex­ist­ence. Sometimes design is forethought or an­tici­pation at its best. Design is always about prep­ara­tion, process, and presentation which can normally breakdown into form, function and context. Usually when I find myself in­volved in the act of de­signing, I am usually creating or adapting something for some specific reason. Hopefully this reason con­tri­butes to the design process by acting as a filter upon each iteration until the “optimal” one is reached. Personally, I find the most exciting designs are those that are innovative, and may cause a shift in the viewer or user’s mood, attitude, perceptions and habits when necessary. These type of designs often retain the potential to evolve into something greater than orig­inally intended by the designer.

Maker

I have recently introduced my­self to various 3D visual ef­fects pro­grams, while also ex­panding on my senior the­sis. I am currently collab­orating on a few freelance pro­jects but I al­ways welcome new work.
