I'm a graphic designer based in Buenos Aires who's been on the web side of things for the past 4 years. My interest in front-end development has been steadily increasing, I am attracted to the idea that graphic design can be applied to just about anything. In my case by creating functional, pixel-perfect websites.

Before specializing in front-end development I've worked at a printing house which gave me a great deal of understanding of the tools and ways of small and large scale printing. From business cards to banners to everything in between, I've worked my way around digital printers, 3D printers, preparing files, and fixing minor mechanical issues.

I began with this journey in web 4 years ago as a Web Developer at Accenture, where I learned much about working in a fast-paced environment, adapting to agile processes and using CMS. I became one of the dev seniors in our team and was the go-to person for any issues and questions regarding our processes or site standards when creating/editing web pages. One of the achievements during my time in this role include thinking of a new way to approach one of the key process in our daily work, which was transforming a word document used to request new pages to an interactive form. This meant faster turn around time from the moment the content owner made the request, to the dev team delivering it for review.

In search of new and exciting challenges, I'm currently employed as a Content Engineer at R/GA working closely with Project Managers, Software Engineers and the client to help all teams related to populating the CMS with the correct content updates.

My skills include Graphic Design, Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, HTML, CSS, Sass, vanilla JavaScript, Agile, UX & Accessibility.
