What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to express my creativity and collaborate on innovative projects.

I am an Argentinian illustrator based in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, with over nine years of experience in conveying concepts and solving problems through art. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design, followed by a multidisciplinary course on creativity and writing. I am currently pursuing a postgraduate degree while participating in a mentorship program to further hone my skills.

Throughout my career, I have worked with a variety of clients, developing illustrations for advertising campaigns, mobile applications, and digital content. My work is inspired by nature, fantasy, and everyday life, and I am always eager to experiment with different artistic styles, utilizing both digital and traditional media to tell compelling stories.
