Carlos has helped me immensely as a marketing consultant for my Kickstarter campaign. I've watched him lead multiple high school reunions with great success. He is always energetic, has good people skills, good leadership skills, good marketing instincts, and makes attractive graphic materials. I recommend him in any of these areas.

Carlos is a very motivated and enthusiastic designer. His willingness to go beyond the expected in everything he does translates into excellent work and, almost as important - an engaged and satisfied client. Carlos is certainly a designer with his own great ideas, but he is also eager to collaborate and build on other's ideas. While working on project for Nirve and Coca-Cola, Carlos gathered a team, directed a photoshoot, and created multiple promotional items which followed the companies' style guides and rules, while bringing a fresh excitement to both. Given most design projects I would trust Carlos to ask the right questions, and provide the best answers with killer design.
