About

I'm a Textile and Apparel Designer with extensive experience and interest in handbags, footwear, and small leather goods design. I have additional editorial, media, and brand image skills thanks to a genuine passion for creating meaningful and attractive brand communicational content. My preference for fashion and a passion for photography allowed me to internalize myself in analyzing trends, designing fashion accessories collections, and producing content for social media. I have an excellent knowledge of graphic design tools and an excellent command of English, as I'm a native Spanish speaker.
