STORYTELLING IS THE SOUL OF MY DESIGN.

Hey, I'm Alan—a designer who's constantly in flow. My journey kicked off in architecture, shaping tangible spaces before curiosity drew me into furniture and graphic design, constantly redefining how we interact with the world around us.

Then digital sparked something new, pulling me into UX design, where I led complex projects like the Big Game Golf app at BeCurious and empowering digital tools such as MyCoach AI and the MyCoach App at Beyond 12.

What now?

Now I’m taking a bold leap—immersing myself deep in Ecuador's vivid landscapes and vibrant culture, building a new brand and line of authentic products from the ground up. It's not just design; it's storytelling, deeply human and real. Each creation reflects a lived experience, a genuine connection, and a fearless pursuit of creativity.

Every project I take on is grounded in real connection, curiosity, and the drive to create something lasting. Thanks for being here—let’s make something unforgettable.
