Hola!
I’m Sergio.

I help brands, startups, institutions and individuals to create beautiful and useful visual messages crafted to suit their needs and engage their target.

By taking a full immersion into my client’s world, challenges and needs. I use a wide variety of techniques such as mind mapping, brainstorming, qualitative and quantitative analysis, interviews, active imagination, divination and sticky notes.


My proposals are based on the timeless principles of design that I learned in my studies more than ten years ago. These are the same principles I teach my graphic design students today. All this means your design will not only look good, but truly respond to your needs and convey your unique message.


I aim to solve your communication problems. My goal is to provide you with a meaningful, coherent image that expands across channels and devices.
