I just LOVE design, I truly do.
When people ask me what I would do if money wasn't an issue... I'd still choose to be a designer.
I am an Experience Designer. with 8 years of experience designing mostly digital products. At the core my aim is to design delightful experiences for people.
After graduating from University in Mexico City, I started my career in Dallas, TX, since then, I've worked in various industries, from telecommunications, consulting, non-profit, start-ups, dating applications, digital retail, and most recently, hospitality.
Currently living in Berlin, trying to learn German and working as a Senior Designer for HomeToGo, the world's largest selection of vacation rentals.
