My short story
Coming from Latitude 0°0´0″ (Ecuador), I am a Senior Art Director currently based in New York. During my career I have been part of great agencies such as Havas, McCann, Marca and now UWG.
As a creative, I use advertising to express innovative ideas and crazy creations, drawing my imagination from everything surrounding me. I love to create great things, make the common uncommon, entertain people and turn any idea into something big.
When I am not around my computer, I like to go out for walks and take photos, click in the icon below to see some of them.

In my career I have had the chance to work with a handful of creatives on different industries yet, I consider Jorge Valdez as one if not the most disruptive, talented and responsible Art Director I ever worked, and still work with on a freelance basis. Jorge’s attention to detail and high focus and passion on the digital sphere amongst his positivity and problem skills often delivers awe-inspiring pieces that remarks the comprise of the campaign with the audience receiving the message through different outlets. In all the years working with Jorge, if there’s something that makes him one of a kind, is his way to work, and that is with a huge smile.
Jorge’s attitude never faltered. That human skill of his transcends to the top of all others since he lifts the spirit of the team and those around him, making the office a perfect place to create and conquer.

I worked with Jorge Valdez at Marca. He was my main graphic designer and he would weekly create content for us for our social media channels. Jorge was very dedicated and one of the hardest working, most creative art directors I’ve ever had the chance to work with. After our weekly meetings he would start working right away on our projects for the week and would come back with many options before our deadlines. He is very positive and enthusiastic, works well in a team and with a wide range of people. I trust his knowledge and capability in content creation for all different types of social media platforms and anything with design in general.
