- Worldbuilder Artist at Brainwash GangMadrid, SpainNovember 2017 - Present
"Worldbuilder Artist" is a made-up role that I use to describe best what my main responsibilities are at Brainwash Gang, but since we're a small team with a horizontal structure my responsibilities go beyond art. Each member gets involved with everything we can!
I work on games such as "Damnview: Built From Nothing", "Grotto" "Laika: Aged Through Blood", "Friends VS Friends" and many more by the studio. - 2D Artist at Sindiecate ArtsMadrid, SpainAugust 2018 - January 2019
My job within Sindiecate included art consulting, working on promotional material and merchandise, and supporting the teams that partnered up with Sindiecate with 2D Art and Concept art as needed.
- Concept and Pixel artist at Appnormals TeamBarcelona, SpainJuly 2017 - January 2018
I was introduced to the team working on "Stay: The Game" at the final stage of development to help provide the last pixel art, animations and concept art needed.
