Location: Lima, Perú

Experienced in working on products from scratch. Starting by understanding the business and users’ needs, then moving on to benchmarking and brainstorming, prototyping and testing, creating high quality design deliverables, and (one of my favorite parts) implementing these designs using HTML and CSS.

Apart from working, I enjoy fixing computers, talking about Star Wars, nerding about Apple, staying up-to-date on design and tech trends, drawing, playing smash, and having sushi rolls, and burritos.
