I’m a Game Designer with +4 years of experience. My main skills are Systems Design, Coding, Analysis and Leadership.
I have a high degree of competence creating rapid prototypes using paper and digital tools, simulations using spreadsheets and engaging documents to communicate the game vision to the team.
I also have experience leading multidisciplinary teams and mentoring designers through stretch tasks and learning activities to develop their strengths.

In my time at Cangrejo Ideas 
, I designed a game for the series “The Amazing World of Gumball” from Cartoon Network.
Even two years after launching it’s one of the most played games in all CN websites.
I’ve created a Youtube channel to share knowledge about Game Design, called Game Design Thinking. In the channel I talk about different topics in game design also drawing from related fields, like pyschology, design thinking, systems thinking and more.
Also, I’ve created a course currently available on Udemy, to teach beginner game designers in an orderly manner how to start in game design and how to create more fun and meaninful games.
Having the opportunity to share my game design knowledge has allowed me to stay constantly looking for new information and techniques. Also, it has given me the chance to knew and connect with many people interested in game design and related fields. For me, it’s one of the best ways to keep up to date with new design techniques while also helping other game designers to increase their knowledge.
