En pocas palabras, ayudo a compañías a multiplicar su valor a través del diseño. Con resultados tangibles.

Desde 1998 he estado trabajando en el mundo del diseño digital siendo Responsable de UX en multinacionales de software como Panda Security o líderes en innovación como Sherpa.ai (Fortune 100 A.I.), donde he podido diseñar productos y servicios que utilizan todos los días millones de personas en todo el mundo.

En 2012 fundo Unexpendables, un estudio de diseño estratégico muy particular en el que desarrollo un framework propio de trabajo (Pregúntame por él). Así hemos conseguido multiplicar el valor de compañías a través del diseño hasta en 100MM de €. (Pregúntame también por esto :))

Tras diseñar desde trenes y ascensores, hasta gimnasios, y cansado de que nadie pronunciara bien el nombre del estudio, hoy somos Tacktell, un nombre con mucho de nosotros mismos y donde me ocupo de capitanear la nave sobre todo en un sentido cultural y metodológico. Necesitamos no perder lo que somos para seguir consiguiendo lo que conseguimos.
