I don't know exactly when I started to draw but I think it was at age 7. My dad used to take to the modern art museum in Santo Domingo, I saw lots of paintings and sculptures may be that triggered my interest in becoming an illustrator and graphic designer. I did lots of traveling with my family, one of the country I lived for about 4 years was San Juan, Puerto Rico. May days living there enriched my love for art and history greatly. In my early teens we finally settled in New York City, there I began to study graphic design and illustration. While living there did lots graphic artist freelance projects for private corporate. Now I live in Las Vegas, NV where I recently graduated with a bachelor degree in media arts and animation.
