Available to hire
I am a senior visual designer and creative director with extensive experience in branding, campaigns, editorial work, and events. Throughout my career, I have worked in various design studios and magazines across Spain and the Netherlands, honing my skills and leading design teams. I am passionate about delivering spot-on design solutions that meet my clients’ perspectives and needs.
Driven by a commitment to continuous learning and clear communication, I work independently as well as collaboratively within teams. If you’re looking for an experienced designer who asks questions, avoids assumptions, and proactively communicates, then let’s create great work together.
