About Me
I remember getting my first computer when I was in 6th grade. Back in 1988 that was a rare ocurrence for a kid barely in primary school. Apple was just coming out with their massively marketed personal computers.
Ever since I have had a knack and a love for computers and what they have to offer.
As a career major I chose business as my major and marketing and finance as my minors. I studied in the highest ranking business school in Latin America at the time, Monterrey TEC.
I have been employed and done business ventures in very diverse fields, from being a money manager in the stock market in the starting days of internet day trading, to Real Estate, Retail Sales management.
Web development came as a refreshing path in my life. It unites two of the fields I love the most, Business and Computers.
In 2006 I decided to take an extensive program detailing the ins and out of web design at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) Educational Outreach.
Ever since, I have gotten from the basics to now being able to create business oriented websites, that are focused on creating results.
My unique background in business marketing and on the ground streetsmarts gives me an edge over other designers, I am always focused on really learning about my clients, what they do, how they do it, and why they do it.
I am litterally willing to go into a chimney (which I have done, for real!) to capture the escence of a business and to be able to put it in the web.
A website is never just a "website". It is a living extension of a business, in the end the only thing that matters is that this extension creates more business, this is my core focus!
