Summary

From an early childhood, art has been at the forefront of my days. After taking an initial path in life as an engineer, my love and passion for film and video games pulled me back, and my career as an artist was born. Having worked in both technical and artistic fields has allowed me to grow professionally in varied and unique ways.

I am currently working as Creative/Art Director at Space Rhino Games where I've been able exercise my skills in concept art, illustration, 3D, design and visual effects. Previously, I've had the opportunity to work as a college professor in 3D animation and video game art, where my role as director and digital artist in Atlantic University College's animated commercial spot earned me three Emmy nominations (Suncoast Chapter) in 2011. I also had the opportunity to be the founder of Work in Motion Studios, one of the first dedicated 3D animation and visual effects studio in Puerto Rico.
