A COLOMBIA-BORN,
STATES-RAISED,
BERLIN-SEASONED…
LATIN LOVER?
A boss once told me that I looked like a Latin Lover. I prefer “Art Director-Designer” but don’t underestimate my passion for concepting, or my ability to express myself through writing and song.
I do have a profound concern for the world. And have a burning desire to create work that makes people feel something. Awe, nostalgia, sadness, surprise. Or even in the best case, love.
If that makes me a Latin Lover, then by all means take my hand. Let’s make the world fall in love.
