Born 1987, June 30th. Cancer. Almost 25 yrs old. NYC born and raised in a Dominican family. I've only travelled twice to the country but my parents have shown me the loud and bright characteristics of the island accompanied by the soothing love and grace of the common people there. From Woodside to Queensbridge and finally to East Elmhurst (and for many years now.) Yup. Just another Queens kid.

I have too many opinions on just about anything and can probably babble you into senseless dialogue or arguments on things I barely know about just because I love to talk. I'm simply an intense idealist with a growing imagination.

I'm a freelance professional working as an illustrator, designer, muralist, web developer and most recently, as a motion graphics animator. Currently, I spend most of my time at NEXTMARVEL as a founder and creative collaborator with two other visionary geniuses and our exciting creative network of amazingly talented friends and partners.

I've mostly worked in advertising agencies and other corporate companies since I was 18 for high-end brands practicing between many hats in illustration, design, art direction and front-end web development.
Ad agency clients included Allure, Dos XX, Jaguar, Crown Royal, Flomax, Pepto-Bismol, Mcdonalds, Exxon-Mobil, Heineken, Charles Schwab and more. I really started working in art and design on client based projects at the age of 15 for small to medium sized businesses, including the NYC Department of Education's Region 9 Arts Festival through The High School of Art and Design. I attended there and teacher/mentor Jorge Luis Cordero organized my first internship at the awesomely inspiring Rockwell Group through The Center for Arts Career Development Program, where I pretty much functioned as a Junior Designer/Illustrator. I've been drawing and making digital art since my elementary school years.

I've also worked on some fun freelance art and design projects for Essence.com, Oakley and Partners, netmining and ignitionOne, Atomicus Films, Sony Music Entertainment's RED, as well as many other businesses ranging from high-end, medium and small organizations.

At this point in my life, I only want to work with big dreamers and doers who are "in it, to win it" as one might say.
