I am a Graphic Designer graduated with honors from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia (2004), and I've been working as a frontend developer full-time since 2013. Currently I'm studying informatic engineering at the Universidad Santo Tomás.

Before 2013 I worked in UX/UI graphic design and AS2/3 programming as well as typographic, and infographic design. I occasionally do some works related with branding, editorial and watercolour painting.

I love read! Mostly classics, sciences, science fiction, philosophy, arts, history, biographies... (check out my Goodreads page). I'm a passionate about mathematics, physics, astronomy, cosmology, and piano.
