I am a Designer, with over 30 years of profesional experience.

I was born in Mexico City. At the age of ten, my family migrated to the United States where we settled in Chicago Illinois. I studied at the Ohio State University and at the Institue of Design as the Illinois Institue of Technology. I worked with several Chicage design agencies, before I was hired by Henry Dreyfuss Associates in New York City. By this time I had won sever international Design competitions, among others the ICSID/Philips Award and the Braun Prize, in the Netherlands and Germany respectively. This is how Philips Design got to know me, and offered me a design position in Eindhove, in the Netherlands. Here I made a fruitful carreer achieving the function of Global Design Director and Vice President being responsible for all design for the Consumer Electronics Division, the largest business of Philips at that period in time.

I love Wikipedia, the purpose, the content and the quality. And i will make contributions in the coming period.
