About me:

I grew up in Bogotá, Colombia, where I studied Systems and Computer Engineering. I worked as a web developer until I decided it was time to pursue my dream of becoming a Game Designer.

Feeling there was still much to learn regarding how to design fun and compelling games, I moved to Vancouver, Canada, and attended Vancouver Film School's Game Design program.

My goal is to find work as a Game Designer, where I can combine my technical knowledge with my passion for games.
