About

IMG_1366_edited_edited_edited.jpg

I am a highly creative footwear designer specializing in both men’s and women’s collections, with a strong understanding of global market trends and consumer needs. I am known in the industry for producing advanced CAD renderings and computer-assisted illustrations that communicate design intent clearly to buyers and development teams, helping streamline the design-to-market process while maintaining creativity, quality and cost efficiency.

With extensive experience collaborating with world-class factories in Italy, Portugal and China, I bring a deep understanding of luxury craftsmanship, materials and manufacturing precision. I have also led and mentored large creative teams, fostering collaborative environments that encourage talent, accountability and high standards of design excellence.

Originally trained as an architect, I bring a structural and spatial approach to footwear design. After studying architecture in Venezuela, I continued my education in New York, earning degrees in Fashion and Footwear Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology, and later at Arsutoria in Milan. This multidisciplinary background allows me to merge architectural thinking with fashion innovation, creating footwear that balances strong visual identity with thoughtful construction and technical sophistication.
