I am a freelance concept artist and 2D visual designer with experience in character design, storyboarding, and motion graphics. In August 2024 I worked as a freelance character concept artist at Mako Animation Studios on a horror project called Horrorland, where I developed character concepts and assets. During my university years I directed and produced my own graduation short film, handling concept art, storyboard, animation, rough animation, and clean-up. I am a technical graphic designer from UNIVA's high school program in Guadalajara, Mexico, and I continue to explore opportunities in video editing, interactive course design, and collaborative design projects.
