about me

I am a Houston-based graphic design student at the University of Houston, where I am pursuing my passion for visual communication through thoughtful, expressive design. As a proud half Puerto Rican and half Mexican creative, my cultural background, personal experiences, and value for connection inform the way I approach my work.


With a foundation rooted in lifelong artistic practice, I transitioned from traditional art into graphic design after discovering a passion for combining creativity with purposeful communication. My work is particularly focused on print design and production, where I enjoy creating thoughtful, engaging materials with an emphasis on editorial design, bookmaking, and tactile experiences.


Experienced in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, Figma, WordPress, and Framer, I approach projects across both print and digital platforms with versatility and intention. As a designer, I am committed to creating meaningful visual solutions that balance creativity with functionality while fostering connection through clear, impactful design.
