Bio
Karla Silva
Alejandro is ambitious, organized, and a quick learner. One of Alejandro's most impressive qualities is that he is results-driven and can see the entire scope of the project and its possible outcome instead of just one piece. He has the ability to overcome difficult circumstances efficiently and carefully. If Alejandro doesn't know something that you need him to, he will dedicate a large effort to learning as much as possible about what is needed. He takes initiative and strives towards further developing his skills daily. I highly recommend Alejandro to any organization.

It has been a joy and inspiration working with Alejandro in the areas of marketing, graphic design, and video production. He is always prepared, focused, and motivated about projects; the products he creates, whether logos, digital ads, or videos, are always top quality. He is great to brainstorm and/or collaborate with. Even working along side of him I have learned techniques that I have implemented into my workflow to increase efficiency. 10/10 would recommend.
