I am a product design engineer working at the intersection of technology and humanity. My passion is to create emotional experiences by combining my skills in design, no&low-code tools, AI, Motion graphics interaction design and social entrepreneurship.
I believe technology should bridge divides, not create them. My journey through diverse design disciplines has taught me to move seamlessly between creative vision and practical implementation. When everyone else sees barriers, I see connections waiting to be made.

about me
Creator, Designer &
Product Design Engineer
I'm a creator and designer with a foundation in Product Design Engineering. I combine analytical thinking with artistic expression to build solutions that are both functional and beautiful. My career spans multiple design disciplines—from motion graphics and UX/UI to 3D lighting and educational content creation. I've established a US-based company with determination and resourcefulness, created and sold digital templates on marketplaces, built educational platforms, and as Vice Chair helped grow Bogotá's ACM SIGGRAPH chapter while now beginning to found a new one in Medellín.
Coming from Colombia, a country marked by inequality, I'm driven to build inclusive technology that serves people across social divides. After spending two years traveling the world absorbing diverse perspectives and investing some others with my savings to master the skills I needed, I've developed an approach that combines analytical thinking with creative vision and human empathy.
