What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to blend creativity with impactful storytelling in a collaborative environment.

I'm a Peruvian multimedia designer based in Victoria, BC, with a bachelor's degree in Audiovisual Communication and Interactive Media from the Peruvian University of Applied Sciences (UPC). I've worked across film, photography and graphic design. With experience in stop-motion, I'm always focused on bringing creative ideas to life through engaging visuals. With a passion for storytelling, my work spans content creation, brand development, and more. When I'm not designing, I enjoy photography, playing video games, and strategic board games.
