About me

I am a Creative Web Designer and Developer

I am a big passionate about web design and I am proud of helping clients to achieve their business goals. I believe that working with enthusiasm, and willing to learn at every step, makes my work better and good results come out.

WordPress and Prestashop are the main CMS I work with. I studied Audiovisual Communication Degree at Universidad de Burgos and I came to the UK to improve my English and to live a great experience out of my comfort zone. Later on, I decided to go back to Spain in order to study a Graphic and Web Design Master. There, I spent 2 years studying and working in an agency in Madrid where I developed my skills as designer and got new ones. I started there just designing with WordPress and at the end I knew how to design with PrestaShop, manage servers (WHM as reseller and client’s hosting as well), I can work through MySQL…

At the master, I got different knowledge:

  • Web design: I learnt and worked with CSS, HTML, JavaScript, jQuery, bootstrap and WordPress. All of them are necessary even working with a CMS.
  • Graphic design: I got skills for creating advertising designs, editing and designing magazines, developing the electoral campaign for Police Union Trade, designing the rebranding for the Club Financiero Génova.

I started working in the agency while I was studying my master’s at European University of Madrid. At the Agency I have worked with the skills previously learnt and developed new ones. I have worked with different clients and kind of websites: blog, branding website, e-Commerces in WordPress and Prestashop, browsers/directories, marketplaces, portfolios.

Nowadays, I came back to the UK where I’m starting to work as a freelancer at the same time that I am looking for a job where I can carry on developing my career as web designer.

I would love to find a job where I could work hard to learn more. I consider myself an eager designer. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said:

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.
