Hi, I’m Belén Garrido Förster, a creative and energetic professional with a passion for art and design. I love teaching art and creating connections with people through creative expression. With a strong background in visual communication design and hands-on experience in various artistic roles, I am adaptable and work well both independently and as part of a team.
I’m proficient in many design and digital art tools and have experience supporting children on the spectrum as a behavioural aide. I bring empathy, creativity, and dedication to all my work, and I’m always eager to learn and take on new challenges.
