This is me looking serious. In reality, I smile 90% of the time. I believe connection and curiosity are daily practices. They're not just mood lifters. They're how you build things worth doing.
I'm Carlos, a California native living in the Bay Area since 2006. The Art Institute of California taught me product design, user research, and graphic design.
Outside work, I volunteer with the San Francisco LGBT Center. I spend time on 3D printing, painting, music mixing, crocheting, pet training, and DIY carpentry.
