Profile
I started my career as a designer in 1998 at the Costa Rica
Institute of Technology (ITCR).
From 2003 to 2005 I worked on Red Castle Group, a magazine
publishing agency. Then I was offered to work in the advertising
agency Conexiones where I made graphic products for brands such as
the Stock Office of Banco Nacional and Battery (energy drink).
I also worked in the web design agency Monkey Designers as a web
designer.
I'm currently working as an OLA Flash Designer in an international
Digital Advertising Company where I've worked for USA based
advertising companies and brands such as Kraft, Microsoft and GM.
My software skills are focused in the design and development of
interactive applications with Adobe Flash CS4 and Action Script, as
well as XHTML and CSS front-end web design.
I've got my Adobe Expert Certification for Flash CS4 by Adobe
Systems Incorporated in June 2010.
