About Me

Media professional, specializing in graphic design. I'm a huge nerd, I love videogames and superhero comics. I'm social and goofy. I'm very respectful towards everyone and try to see good in all. I try to look on the positive of things, and stay focused on things that really matter and are important to me. I want to live in the moment and explore the world to the fullest.

I'm also very into volunteer work, in my city I work with animal rights group, politic groups and also LGBT youth. I try to work for better and more loving world for everyone to be in. It's hard work sometimes, but it's always worth it.
