Senior UI Artist I

Irvine, CA, USA
I'm a multidisciplinary Colombian graphic designer based in Leipzig - Germany, and with over 20+ years of experience in different fields as advertising, prints, font design, corporate identity, web design, tv and video games for clients and projects in Latin America, United States and Europe. Currently I'm working as UI ARTIST for the video game company BLIZZARD ENTERTAINMENT, and previously for GOOD GAME STUDIOS and CD PROJEKT RED in the AAA projects THE WITCHER 3 and CYBERPUNK 2077.
Parallel to my professional work I'm constantly developing personal works with which I has won many contests and has been exhibited in different events and countries.
My work has been reviewed by several art and design publications as IMAGINE FX, ART QUARTER from DPI MAGAZINE, EDITORIAL DESIGN from CHOIS GALLERY among others and is currently featured in blogs specializing in design for the high quality of my expressiveness and the inventiveness of my creativity.
