Personal Statement

Hello! Thanks for stopping by. I think Design is, in essence, the materialization of emotions. Maybe that is why the process of designing is so natural to some of us. It’s a familiar place,  a way to reach people. I find this process exhilarating.

After the “what design is to me” statement, I can tell you a little bit more about myself. I was born in Mexico city, a city full of life, colors, flavors, people and cars, lots of it. I saw the connection of people and their vehicles, the impact it has on their lives, it is inspiring to this date. Unknown to myself at the time, this was the reason I pursue a career in this field. I aspire to be a part of the process behind the vehicles that form a part of all these stories and emotions that people live. I hope we can work on some cool stuff together.
