Twitter, Eight years: A breath of work
Over the last eight years, I have gained extensive experience in various design and creative roles across two teams at Twitter.
I spent the past two years within Twitter’s internal creative studio were my role as Sr Art Director was focused on expanding the brand’s newly refreshed visual expression with hands-on development of campaign ideation, conception, and execution and furthering design systems with cross-functional teams across various marketing and product environments and surfaces.
My previous six years started as a Designer, and rising to Design lead on the Creative Development team at Twitter Next. I collaborated with strategists, creatives, data scientists, tinkerers, technologists, and producers to build new ideas in partnership with Twitter’s most talked-about brands.
The past two years within Twitter’s internal creative studio, we focused on expanding the brand’s newly refreshed visual expression, with hands-on design systems development and campaign with cross-functional teams across various marketing and product environments and surfaces.

People + Places: Cuba
People 📷 Places: Cuba
Cuba was a land until then that was a country I had never set foot in. Still, being Cuban-American was a massive part of my identity, having been reared by a family of exiled immigrants rich in culture but tortured by its politics.
The journey to Cuba was an attempt to connect with the source of who I was through firsthand experience in my ancestral land. These were some of the moments captured zipping around the island, meeting my extended family for the first time
I never felt more at home yet so appreciative of my family’s risks and sacrifices to start over.

Campaign New York
On the evening of September 15, Vanity Fair launched Campaign New York with a dazzling, one-night-only cocktail and shopping event on Madison Avenue. Organized in partnership with the Madison Avenue Business Improvement District and open to the public, the event celebrated the opening of the “Unveiled” Exhibition, curated by Vanity Fair: From September 15–26, more than 100 Madison Avenue BID members featured over-size images from the book Vanity Fair: The Portraits, A Century of Iconic Images in their windows.
Throughout the night, the avenue from 57th to 86th Streets was flush with shoppers, who, when they used their American Express® Card to make a purchase, contributed a portion of the evening’s proceeds from all stores to the Whitney Museum of American Art’s Photography Program, Collection, and Special Exhibitions. Additionally, select stores also featured a Cardmember item specially designated for Campaign New York. Ten percent of sales from the items benefitted the Whitney Museum.
