Bringing emotions to people through my work has always been my passion. My first job was a work and study position at the University of Puerto Rico, where I graduated in 2019 as a Magna Cum Laude. In November of that same year I moved all the way to Charlotte, NC to start my first full time job as a Multimedia Designer at Belmont Abbey College, where I produced a variety of communication materials, as well as graphic design, photography and video. After almost 2 years, I decided to move to Florida, where I started my previous job as a Graphic Designer for Coastal Properties Group. I'm always looking for ways to continue developing myself as a professional in my field.
