ABOUT

Growing up in El Salvador, I discovered a deep interest in arts and crafts. However, the prevailing environment around me led me to believe that art was merely a hobby, not a possible career choice. Only within my dreams could I envision myself as a true artist. In 2010, I set forth on a journey to the United States, driven by the pursuit of better education and greater opportunities.

The transition proved to be arduous as I encountered difficulties in communicating with my classmates, causing moments of frustration. Nevertheless, amidst these challenges, a realization emerged—I discovered a remarkable fascination for my Digital Art class. It was during this time that my art teacher, Sam Harang, played an instrumental role in igniting my passion for the arts, forever changing the trajectory of my creative pursuits.

In 2018, I took a leap of faith and co-founded Glare, a future-forward multidisciplinary design studio, focusing on Art Direction, Design, Motion Graphics, Illustration, Storyboarding, Video Directing and 3D Graphics. Throughout our three year long journey, we had a blast putting out boundaries pushing visuals and setting trends. In addition we had the honor of collaborating with exceptional clients, delivering striking work.

As a Digital Artist based in Los Angeles, my journey over the past seven years has been nothing short of incredible. Working with some of the biggest brands out there has been a surreal experience, almost like a fantastical tale to my younger self. Looking back, I am filled with profound gratitude for everyone I've crossed paths with. Each person has played a vital role, contributing in their own way to the realization of this dream of mine.
