About 

I am an architectural designer, writer and photographer from La Havana, Cuba, currently living in New York City. My work as designer and writer has become a way of communicating and paying attention to social and cultural concerns, engaging in a constant fight against indifference.


My main intentions are to break barriers, collaborate, and make global connections between the people who experience and partake in the creation of his work. I believe that the uncertainty of modern times is only a small obstacle when compared to the tenacity of the human mind.
