As a seasoned graphic designer, illustrator, and photographer, I’ve worked with agencies such as PIMP (Barcelona) and SLAM (Madrid), and served as Art Director at STJOR™, and Senior Designer at Binomic.cat and Xtrategics.com. I co-founded the lifestyle brand METERSAKER™ and O’BROTHERS BREWERY, and have collaborated with international clients such as Djinn’s (Germany), Dova Motorcycles (Sevilla), Lamono Magazine, Mediapro, and Boogaloo Films (all based in Barcelona).
My creative style is informed by American Sign Painting & Lettering, Traditional Tattoo art, Victorian- and Modernist-era poster design, and the energy of Street Art. I’m also a musician—performing occasionally as a DJ with Afro Caribbean Collective and as a singer/harmonica player with The Denim Rips.
My passions include reading, Soul, Country, Punk Rock & Early Reggae music, and classic cinema (from Italian Neorealism and Nouvelle Vague to Westerns, Blaxploitation, and vintage B‑movies). I keep active through boxing and skateboarding, and I’m fascinated by classic and customized motorcycles such as Harley, Norton, Triumph, Guzzi, Vespa, and Lambretta.
