Hello! I’m a 2D Animator and Storyboard Artist with a passion for illustration and visual storytelling.
About
Hello! I’m a 2D Animator and Storyboard Artist with a passion for illustration and visual storytelling. I’ve contributed to animation short films, editorial projects, and advertising, drawing from a background in comics to enrich narrative and style. I’ve been involved in all stages of the animation production pipeline and I’m adept at balancing narrative, aesthetics, and budget.
I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy figuring things out, learning on the job, and delivering under tight deadlines. I’m fluent in Spanish and English, and I love translating ideas into vivid visuals that connect with audiences.

I made the storyboard that ended up being used as the shooting schedule for this videoclip:
- Storyboard Artist
Prometidos is an 8-minute 2D animated short film that blends absurd comedy, romantic fantasy, and elements of gore to explore love from an irreverent and emotionally imperfect perspective. The project establishes a visual narrative of contrast between a naïve, colorful aesthetic and a more adult storyline, where physical humor and exaggeration coexist with the characters’ emotional vulnerability.
As an author, my work focuses on exploring uncomfortable humor, the grotesque, and emotional depth within seemingly light narratives, building universes where the cute and the violent coexist as a reflection of complex human relationships.
