Hi, I’m Arantza Zú Cagigas, a customer-focused visual artist and educator with experience in client service and art education environments. I love turning ideas into meaningful visuals for brands, books, and events, and I’m skilled at guiding clients, children, and parents, managing calls, organizing payments, and delivering positive, professional experiences. I’m highly organized, proactive, and fluent in English, with strong communication and interpersonal skills. I began my studies at the University of the Americas but soon realized my true calling was to pursue art full-time. I have exhibited at venues in Puebla and continue developing my craft through independent projects, collaborations with studios, and ongoing art education.
