Designer, researcher, operator.
20+ years across entrepreneurship and in-house leadership — building small companies from the ground up and growing from a designer role into a VP position. Bachelor's in Visual Design, Master's in Interaction Design. As much a researcher as a designer: a T-shaped profile with breadth across STEM domains and depth in visual information, interaction, and systems. Trilingual, with operating experience across Colombia, France, Canada, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
He's built multiple successful design organizations and is equally capable operating as a solo designer when that's what the work calls for. His engagements have cut design operating costs by roughly 50% while maintaining output, and driven 20–30% gains in team efficiency — outcomes measured the same way a business tracks any other operating function.
He applies the same systems-thinking discipline to leadership that he applies to design: consistency, coaching, and long-term capability building over short-term output. Teaching is a priority, because developing others compounds organizational capability faster than any individual contribution. He also maintains a personal movement practice, studying the human body as a design system.
