In 1994, I started to work as a copywriter at Contrapunto/BBDO. Between 1996 and 2002, I worked and grew at a few agencies in Madrid like BDDP/ManceboKaye, Y&R, M&C Saatchi and TBWA.
Also, I spent some time freelancing for clients such as Camper, Advico/Y&R Zurich, M&C Saatchi London and Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
In 2002, I met a Canadian woman, through work, of course. I ended up moving to Vancouver in 2003, where the transformation started. I studied art direction, typography, photography and graphic design at Emily Carr Institute for Art and Design, joined Rethink Advertising, and began saying "I had a glass of wader at the pardy." I learned some strange new concepts, like "long underwear", "take-out coffee" and "Canadian wine". Then, just when I thought I had things almost figured out, I had a daughter and we all moved back to Madrid.
I started a small creative shop there called Purr and won a nice little project for Toyota - which you can read all about down below. Eventually, change called again, and my company evolved into a tiny independent film production company.
In 2007, I moved back to Canada and since then, I've been bringing my unique experience and even uniquer (no, that's not a word, but it will do) way of thinking to agencies like Ogilvy Toronto, KBS+ and Bensimon Byrne.
I'm currently open to freelance work or joining a creative team on a full-time basis (647.521.4908).
By the way, I don't believe my transformation is complete, as I never expect to stop evolving. So if you're an agency that likes people who learn and grow, you can see I have a whole whack of experience.
