Although I specialize in marketing, administration and digital media, the mix with my artistic and computer graphics experience background has given me a broader outlook into other aspects of the practical and logical advertising design. It has exposed me to the world of advertising at all levels, from storyboarding and copy-writing to the visual concept or the design production and post production, and to evaluate and interact with the feedback of the results. I have 25 years in this business, 18 of them learning and working with computer graphics for any media, print, web and broadcast as operator, designer and director.
