About
Life is a journey full of experiences, challenges, and moments. The big challenge is to make it sustainable over time to create unique projects with significance. Have you thought about it?
Since I can remember I have been extremely excited to travel and move around different places. I quickly learned to walk, later ride a bicycle, and then drive a car. The experience of being able to move to where I wanted while enjoying the trip became more and more enjoyable.
I became a designer, attracted by the curiosity to create vehicles, ships, spaces, and new experiences. Always inspired by my travels and experiences, I have designed hundreds of projects in the areas of product, furniture, interior design, commercial exhibition, graphics, and recently transportation and mobility.
Art, design, photography, and riding a bicycle, became the best things to always carry with me, living each day as a new episode of this fantastic journey. Some of my most important episodes have been being a Senior Designer in the largest commercial exhibition company in Colombia, being the Marketing Manager of the exclusive distributor for Colombia of the best luxury furniture brands, and creating my own commercial architecture company with which I developed hundreds of projects for over 6 years in Colombia, Central America, and the USA. In 2018 I moved to Turin, Italy to make a master's in Transportation Design at IAAD.
I am passionate about designing vehicles, creating new sustainable mobility experiences, and finding new ways to travel. I develop design projects in transportation and sustainable mobility. I like to work from strategic design, creating new concepts that can become good products, solving, and improving the lives of many people.
