Born in Madrid, I am a 22 year old 1st class graphic design graduate from the University of Lincoln in the United Kingdom. I have recently graduated from an MA in Visual Design from Elisava, Barcelona.
I have always had a great interest in any kind of creatively visualising and expressing ideas in ways such as design and photography.
Three years ago I moved to England with nothing but a suitcase full of jumpers (the hardest change from the 35 degree weather in Madrid) to pursue the idea of being a visual artist as well as a creative who could express ideas and solve problems through creative thinking. I am now based in London and open to internships and junior roles that will allow me to grow, learn, and share all my ideas!
As a designer and creative thinker I always try to carefully consider my design decisions - by understanding the problem and the solution needed — so that they are adequate to the brief, introducing a fresh point of view, being critical and objective with my work. I’m an ambitious individual who always seeks answering the why decisions have been taken the way they’ve been taken.
