What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create clear, engaging brand and learning experiences where I can combine visual design, illustration, UX, and storytelling while contributing to inclusive, equitable, and mentally healthy workplaces.

I'm currently designing learning interfaces, editable facilitator materials, and video storyboards for SweetRush clients including McDonald's, Amazon, Legal Aid Society, GARE, and OneTrust.

At Universidad Europea, I created campus and event branding, paid-media campaign assets, brandbooks, presentations, templates, and an internal Brand Center as part of the Strategic Marketing team.

I've also shaped visual communication at XPLANE Spain & LATAM, Global Alumni, AlfaPeople, and Nicholls & Clarke, producing infographics, illustrations, storyboards, animated educational content, campaigns, landing pages, and print materials.

I'm a creative, passionate ongoing learner who advocates for equity, inclusion, and mental health awareness. My background in illustration, animation, UX, and visual thinking helps me make learning and brand experiences engaging and clear.
