About me:

I’ve always thought of design as a series of connected dots. Each one a new discipline, a new technique, a different way to express yourself. And my career as a designer has a lot to do with that. With jumping from one dot to the next. With exploring. That’s what has brought me from luxury to fast fashion, from Barcelona to Milan and back, from building my own brand to working in kid’s design, and from being a multidisciplinary designer to becoming a freelance designer. So, I guess these are my dots:

Foundations

My career begins at the age of 18, when I move to Barcelona to study industrial and graphic design at ELISAVA. Four years of studies, which ended with a scholarship from the Richemont Group to study a master's degree in luxury accessories design in Milan, thanks to my final project, Fabric.

Luxury

After my first stage in Barcelona, I move to Milan to delve into the world of luxury watches, bags, and jewelry. An experience full of learning and growth that leads me to my first position at a large fashion brand, Chloé, where I work designing prints and textile techniques for the bag’s department.

My own brand

Sometime later and already back in Barcelona, I decide to bring my first personal project to life by co-founding GAVIRIA, a jewelry and handbag brand inspired by popular culture and art. An adventure that lasts four crazy and wonderful years, giving me some of the most important lessons of my career.

Fast Fashion

After these years, I make the tough decision to leave Gaviria to explore a new discipline unknown to me until then. This is how I start working in the Inditex group, designing costume jewelry, accessories, and perfumery at Stradivarius. A hectic year that drives me to take my most recent step.

New challenges

I guess, at this point, it makes sense. Why not keep exploring new disciplines, while keeping in touch with the ones I already know? This is the idea that leads me to become a freelance designer. A new stage that allows me to work for young brands such as Mini Kyomo, designing children's accessories, reconnecting with luxury, or giving life to the latest Stradivarius perfume collection. All while continuing searching and learning new techniques such as tapestry or tufting gun, shaping a new personal project named Isla Macadamia.
