At Abbott, I developed and deployed my first machine learning models, improving the accuracy and efficiency of assembly line image analysis.

Tac Swipe

An orange app icon with a symbol that looks like a mix between the letter A and a crosshair.

While at UofT, I was part of the team that built Tac Swipe, an e-commerce platform once described by our boss in Texas as “Tinder for guns”. I served as project coordinator and test engineer; you can still check out the app in APKCombo.

De cómo moría y resucitaba Lázaro, El Lazarillo

My younger self in a ridiculous costume.

A theatre play and project I feel particularly proud of. You can get an idea of what it was like from this short YT video, excuse the low resolution.

The logo for the TV show that resembles an open box.

A documentary TV show that explores the life and impact of reknown Ecuadorian artists. You can check out the trailer for the pilot in Vimeo, unfortunately, it's only available in Spanish.

La Ventana

A sour-looking elephant man walking decisively.

A graphic novel born from a collaboration with Jorge Velarde, my father, exploring the cinematic roots that connect all his work. Check out my dad's current paintings on Instagram.
