Summary

PROFESIONAL OBJECTIVE Contribute to the sustainable growth of the organization; integrating knowledge, experience, continuous dedication, and ethical commitment to the fulfillment of the mission and objectives of the company; also give the opportunity to continue developing in the professional field.

I like to think that any idea can be created as an illustration, graphic, or cartoon. As an artist, I feel I can transform anything into art. Here at Kimball Collective, I am an illustrator, graphic designer, and cartoonist. Outside of work, I am a family-oriented gent, a twin to David, and a single dad.

I’ve been drawing my entire life. Born in Guatemala, I began my creative journey as an illustrator and cartoonist early in life. As a young teen, I moved to Nicaragua and continued sketching whenever possible. My work has blossomed over the years, and two years ago, I moved to Costa Rica with my two beautiful children. It’s here where I’ve been able to step into the workforce as a professional creative.

Over the last few years, I’ve been working as a freelance artist, creating drawings, sketches, and designs for a number of companies. I’m delighted to have joined Kimball Collective in October 2020 to work alongside my sister and brothers.
