Why me

Product design, type design, and now photography. All feeding the same eye.

I'm a working Product and Type Designer. Journaling systems, typefaces, reading habits, the tools I use day to day — the content is grounded in things I already do, rather than research for a brief.

I've also worked as a product and event photographer, which shows in a clear visual eye and instinct for art direction — how a shot, a frame or a scene should look.

I create in both English and Spanish, and split my time between Spain and London, which lets me speak to either market in its own language.

Photography

Process

From brief to ad-ready file. In under a week.

Brief

Send me the product and a sentence on the angle. Or just the product — I'll handle the rest.
