In high-school I decided I wanted to study game design.

I've always loved to create worlds and stories for people to enjoy. Through videogames, which I believe to be strong message bearers for players, I can express myself, entertain and fill this world with all kinds of cool stuff!

I have always been a creative person, when I was a kid I always liked drawing and writing and it has carried on until today!

When I saw Supercell office

Many of my most memorable childhood memories are related to drawing. But it took some detours until I realized that art was a viable career path.

I was first an IT Engineering student but I got too burnt out from that. After a year of hiatus, I decided that I wanted to follow my true passion and enrolled as a Video Game Designer student. Up until this point, I've been passionate about my projects and I've been developing for the past 4 years. I decided that I wanted to mix both of my passions (music and video games) and I've decided that, in the near future, I'll be developing the music for each and everyone of my projects.

Throughout my life, I always loved discovering and developing new creative outputs, but the one I was most attracted to was animation, so after high school, the choice for me was pretty clear. But even after studying animation, I'm still interested in other creative fields like programming, music, cinematography, photography...

I've always wanted to be part of the creative industry. Drawing has been my full-time passion since i was very small but then in highschool, after studying all the conventional subjects, I realised that my dream job, or my roots, still were on art.

When I was just a little girl and I realized the animated movies that I so adored were made by actual people!

When I played my first Nintendo DS game, it was my first contact with video games and I was completely hooked and started drawing levels in school notebooks.

I believe that I was inspired at a young age by my family members, who have always had artistic hobbies of their own. After changing my study path from science to pursue a career in digital design, I realized where my strengths lay and that I was in the right place.

I have known since I was a child that I wanted to do cinema and, more specifically, animation. I started animating in flipbooks and soon digital art caught my attention. Now, I know that is the path I want to take. I have studied four years of an Animation Degree at UTAD and have developed three amateur short films, as well as directed 'Ciao Peskao', a short made by an eight people team as our final assingment for college.

Desde muy pronto en mi vida, siempe me ha gustado dibujar y jugar con la imaginación.

I have always been drawn to the world of animation, but especially during my third year of career I found my passion in pre-production and art direction after starting to develop our short film "Old Times" together with my colleagues.

When I played The Witcher3

Since I was a child I have always been connected to the visual arts through music, skateboarding, painting, graffiti... I have always wanted to dedicate more time to any creative work since I was a child to bring out its full potential. I discovered graphic design in college and from that moment on it became my passion.

I've been drawing since I was 11 but it was more like a hobbie for me. That changed in secondary school, when i decided i wanted to study the Art Bachellor and take my drawing skills more proffesionally. I decided to work in the animation infustry after watching Over the garden wall.

I´ve always loved creating stories.

More less around 2015 when I started getting interested in animated movies and started to read and watch artbooks about them.

I have always enjoyed drawing and creating my own characters. When I discovered 3D I fell in love with this new method of creating stories.

As a kid I loved videogames and I wanted to make them. Now I want to make that first thought a reality
