Bits, zeros, and ones.

My journey through digital media spans over two decades, beginning in Caracas, Venezuela, during the rise of personal computers and the Internet in the early 1990s. Fueled by my interest in technology, I wrote my first lines of code at the age of eight, sparking a passion for computers. This fascination with machines naturally extended to science fiction, design, and existential inquiries that found a foothold in philosophy. A restless curiosity has driven me to collaborate on a wide spectrum of creative projects with professionals from diverse fields.

​

My explorations of cybernetics and artificial intelligence began in the early 2000s. I graduated from PROdiseño School of Visual Communication in 2002, specializing in digital media, where I later became an educator for over a decade. In 2003, I founded my first creative firm, focusing on multimedia and web design. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with startups, corporations, consumer brands, and the advertising industry, developing projects over cross-media platforms.

​

After relocating to New York City in 2016, I have been working on a series of artistic explorations centered around creating emotion machines. My work, rooted in these explorations, has been showcased in galleries across New York, earning recognition from public organizations, critics, and curators.

​

I persistently reflect on new perspectives at the intersection of technology and art, collaborating with diverse groups to explore new ways of interacting and mediating the human experience through technology.
