Having worked in the industry for years I feel I could utilize my skills fully and bring new creativity to suitable positions.
For the past four years I've been working as designer at Vanidad Fashion Magazine and at the same time I was freelancing for other fashion brands such as Bimba & Lola, Jesus del Pozo, and peSeta (also known for their regular collaborations with Marc Jacobs).
I'm currently working as a freelance designer at Studio Fernando Gutiérrez, a London based studio specialized in identity, packaging, exhibition and editorial design.
