Digital Designer & Creative Lead with two decades of experience across brand, web, product, and development.
My background is unusual by design.
I started in computer science and software development, then spent years building startups across brand, product, and engineering before finding my sweet spot somewhere between design, technology, and business.
Today, that means I can move comfortably from an early strategic conversation to identity design, product thinking, digital experiences, full-stack development, and the details required to actually launch them.
Good digital work rarely fits neatly inside one discipline.
A brand decision affects the product. A product decision changes the website. A marketing goal becomes an interaction problem. And a good idea is only valuable once somebody can ship it.
I like working across those boundaries.
Instead of handing work from strategist to designer to developer, I can stay close to the problem throughout the process. It keeps decisions connected, collaboration tighter, and projects moving.
Shipping has shaped the way I work.
Years of building products taught me to validate ideas early, make decisions with incomplete information, ship before everything feels finished, and learn from what happens next.
New tools—including generative AI, agentic workflows, and visual development—have expanded what a small, focused team can accomplish.
The goal isn’t speed for its own sake.
It’s keeping the process actionable: making decisions, shipping early, learning quickly, and improving through real feedback instead of getting stuck in endless exploration.
I work remotely from Colombia with teams around the world.
Depending on the project, I can work directly with founders, partner with other independent specialists, collaborate with an existing team, lead a design initiative, or become a fractional extension of marketing or product.
I’ve been working remotely for most of my career, so clear communication and asynchronous collaboration are simply how I operate.
Low ceremony. High responsiveness. Plenty of visibility into the work.
The projects I enjoy most usually start with something unfamiliar, ambitious, or slightly difficult to categorize.
A company entering its next stage. A product creating a new category. A physical idea that needs a digital business around it. A brand that no longer matches the quality of the business behind it. A team trying to turn emerging technology into something people can understand and use.
Those are good problems.
If you’re working on one, I’d like to hear about it.
