As a Graphic Designer (Adobe Certified Professional in Visual Design) and currently studying Computer Information Systems with focus on Web & Cloud Developer, I’m constantly seeking opportunities to learn and contribute to a dynamic environment. Through my experience in different fields like Accounting, Product Supply Chain, Customer Service and IT, I have developed strong skills in using technology to solve and automate solutions for complex problems. I approach each problem with creativity and innovation, ensuring that I design solutions that optimize both performance and user experience.

In my current role as a Graphic Designer at Edmonds College, I collaborate with internal teams and students to design promotional materials for events and student clubs. This role has strengthened my ability to work within a cooperative team environment, manage time effectively, and continuously seek feedback to improve my creativity. 

I’m particularly passionate about analyzing systems performance and automation to optimize processes.
In my previous role at Procter & Gamble, I applied accounting knowledge and contributed to AP by analyzing financial data and supporting decision-making processes. I collaborated with teams across finance, IT, and order management to streamline operations, improve workflow, and implement automation processes that enhanced efficiency.

My ability to evaluate requirements, improve user experience, and deliver timely solutions directly contributed to improved account payable performance, compliance, and buyers' satisfaction.

I am committed to a user-experienced approach to problem-solving and continuously seek new knowledge to stay current with industry best practices and technology trends. Whether working on AI applications, improving accounting processes, or scaling feature development, I always aim to deliver on the roadmap, exceed expectations, and build trust with both customers. Through every challenge, I ensure clear, actionable insights that influence product and service improvements.

Hobbies

Aviation: My First Flight and Lifelong Dream

The first time I flew—at least the first time I remember—was in 2013. I was traveling with my mom to visit a relative. While waiting at the airport, I spotted two pilots, and my excitement was undeniable. Seeing my enthusiasm, my mom walked me over to them and asked if they could take a picture with me. They happily agreed. That moment, along with the flight experience, left a deep impression on me. Once we arrived at our destination, I told my mom, "I want to be a pilot." Since then, my fascination with airplanes has only grown, fueling my dream of eventually becoming a pilot.

Music: A Lifelong Soundtrack

Music has been a part of my life since I was a baby. My mom used to listen to Colombian music, and her love for the genre naturally influenced me. Over the years, my musical taste has expanded across different genres and languages. While many people focus on lyrics, I tend to be drawn to the sounds, rhythms, and intonations. However, I also appreciate when lyrics and music come together to convey a powerful message.

Technology & IT Consulting: Enhancing Efficiency Through Innovation

Technology has always fascinated me, especially its ability to improve lives and boost efficiency. I enjoy helping friends and coworkers solve IT-related problems, guiding them to find the best solutions. However, I’ve recently started reflecting on the ethical implications of technology. Watching Disney’s WALL-E made me wonder: If technology does everything for us, how will we develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills? These questions continue to shape my perspective on the responsible use of technology.

Teaching & Tutoring: Sharing Knowledge, Inspiring Growth

My passion for teaching started at age 10 when I first explained a math concept to my classmates. Seeing their faces light up with understanding brought me immense joy. Since then, I’ve loved tutoring and sharing knowledge. I firmly believe that knowledge is meant to be shared, which is why I admire the open-source movement and actively support educational initiatives.

Video Editing & Production: A Journey of Creativity

At age 9, I discovered video editing when I attempted to download Camtasia on my dad’s computer. That was my starting point. Over the years, I have edited various types of videos, including gameplays, podcasts, Facebook ads, and Instagram reels. My passion for video production continues to grow as I explore new techniques and styles.

Acting & Content Creation: Expressing Ideas Through Video

I was inspired by HolaSoyGerman on YouTube when I was younger. Watching his videos sparked my interest in acting and content creation. For me, acting is more than entertainment—it’s a way to connect with people and share meaningful messages.

Anime & Manga: A Love for Storytelling and Art

The first anime I ever watched was Ranma ½, and I was immediately drawn to its animation and storytelling. Over time, my best friend introduced me to series like Tokyo Ghoul, Kimetsu no Yaiba, and Attack on Titan, while a relative recommended movies like Koe no Katachi and Kimi no Na wa. Recently, I’ve started exploring manga, as I’m interested in learning how to draw.

Content Creation: From Stop Motion to Tutorials

My journey in content creation began with a simple stop-motion video using Legos and my dad’s phone. Realizing I could pause and resume recording to create movement fascinated me. From there, I experimented with various content types, including gameplays, tutorials, video editing guides, stop motions, tutoring sessions, podcasts, and even TikToks. Creating content allows me to combine my passions for technology, storytelling, and education.
