What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my design skills while fostering creativity and collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am a graduate in Visual Communication Design from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Cali, currently specializing in Strategic Marketing for Digital Media at Universidad Icesi. My passion lies in designing unique brands and developing marketing strategies that foster consumer engagement through digital media.

As a freelancer, I have developed brand identities based on audience research and brand personality, ensuring consistent communication through visual identities. My experience includes creating organic content for various brands and serving as a brand strategist, which has honed my skills in content strategy and storytelling.

In my previous roles, I have managed social media strategies across multiple countries, designed graphic materials for marketing campaigns, and directed photoshoots for advertising projects. I am dedicated to enhancing brand presence and engagement through creative and effective design solutions.
