I GOT WORD THAT THE ALAC MARCOM TEAM IS HIRING AN ASSOCIATE CREATIVE DIRECTOR/DESIGN

HERE’S MY APPLICATION FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION

About

While some folks flaunt their alma maters or shiny rides, I take pride in the fact that I’ve completed a good chunk of my bucket list. I can confidently say that the Apple products have been an instrumental part of my creative toolkit since the beginning of my professional career. Apple’s 1997 “Think Different” campaign really inspired me and my generation. Later on, when I ventured into the advertising industry, Apple’s 1984 Super Bowl ad became one my all-time favorite references when teaching my students and mentoring junior creatives. I have great memories of going into the Mac lab in school to create my first logos as a graphic designer, silhouetting photos and creating catalogs at my first job, and animating and designing my first website. I grew up in a family of artists and engineers, and my parents always encouraged my brothers and I to learn, to create, to be curious, and to find new ways to express ourselves. Art became my way of life—my escape—which later translated into a career in Graphic Design and a master’s in fine arts in Advertising.

Experience

Let's talk business. Beyond my passion for design, I'm a seasoned storyteller and entrepreneur at heart. Whether I'm crafting a multi-million-dollar ad campaign, designing websites, or conjuring up branding magic for new ventures, I've honed my skills through years of working with Fortune 500 companies, celebrities and professional athletes. I've got the chops to tackle projects of any size, shape, or color, and I know a thing or two about soccer. With over 16 years in the advertising industry, I've scooped up honors at the Cannes Lions Festival, D&AD, One Show, Clios, Communication Arts, and more. My journey has been wild and colorful, packed with tons of production experience, and award-winning campaigns that have made waves from Alaska to Montevideo, and had received worldwide recognitions.

Qualifications

I’d be thrilled to step into the role of Associate Creative Director of Design at Apple, leading by example and fostering an environment where innovation and collaboration thrive. My aim is to inspire and work closely with designers and creatives, pushing the boundaries of creativity to deliver exceptional results.

However, just as in life, in the professional landscape, success is a team effort. I am fully capable of working independently, but my true strength lies in collaboration. Teamwork is at the core of my approach, whether it's joining forces with cross-functional teams or supporting the day-to-day needs of our internal partners. It's about bringing together diverse talents, nurturing bold ideas, and crafting experiences that resonate deeply with audiences.

I love challenges, particularly those that demand a combination of conceptual thinking and meticulous execution. Whether I'm brainstorming with copywriters or refining the final touches with designers, I bring a strategic, creative, and hands-on approach to every project. My bilingual fluency in English and Spanish also allows me to connect with a wide range of audiences, making our creative work even more impactful.

Directing creative initiatives for Apple’s marketing campaigns, particularly for the Latin American and US Hispanic markets, is an exciting opportunity. I envision developing work that is not only visually compelling but also strategically aligned with Apple’s brand standards. By collaborating with cross-functional teams, external vendors, and production artists, I am committed to delivering design solutions that are innovative, cohesive, and reflective of Apple’s high-quality standards.

SOME OF MY FAVORITE PROJECTS

Why me?

Simple. I bring a winning blend of creativity, bilingual powers, and an undying love for design. I believe in Apple’s mission statement of bringing the best user experience to customers through innovative hardware, software, and services. I’m ready to roll up my sleeves, dive into the weeds, and turn Apple’s vision into vibrant reality. Here’s my resume for a closer look at my winning stats.

Thank you for considering my application.
