Industrial Designer and Illustrator, born in Guatemala, lived in Norway and now living temporarily in New York City. In July 2010 I will star working as a volunteer designer in Mombasa Kenya.

I am one of the founding members of El Chiltepe, an on-line magazine that showcases new and innovate work by a variety of international artists and aimed for Latin Americans. I am also part of BC Colectivo where I collaborate with Guatemalan photographer Chinitas Yon and experiment with recycled materials combining our talents to create unique pieces of art.
