Diego, a Veteran Designer with a Passion for Pixels..
With over two decades of experience crafting visually compelling designs, I am confident in my ability to create timeless designs or solve design problems.
Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated a keen eye for detail, a deep understanding of design principles, and a proven ability to translate ideas into captivating visuals. My portfolio showcases a diverse range of projects highlighting my proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and my experience in creating impactful digital and print media designs.
Technical Skills & Services
I’m proficient with tools that streamline the design-to-development process, resulting in efficient and user-friendly experiences. My decade long experience building sites has strengthened my WordPress abilities, and I frequently utilize Elementor, Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), and Figma (a leading collaborative design platform) to create high-definition website concepts and designs, like the Jody Kahlon site. I prioritize clean, functional design that elevates user experience and brand perception. My core specializations include web design, UI design, and branding & identity. Additionally, I’ve started producing content for Jody Kahlons Instagram account, further enhancing my visual communication skills. Let’s discuss how I can apply this diverse skillset to your agency’s projects. I’d also be happy to share specific examples from my work that demonstrate how my WordPress, Elementor, ACF, and Figma expertise delivered successful outcomes.

Photography
Throughout my career, I have developed a diverse photography portfolio that encompasses a wide range of genres, such as documentary and fine art. I take pleasure in utilizing both digital and film photography to immortalize events, concerts, and everyday moments.
I see a photo in almost everything, always looking out for that shot. Its intoxicating!
The Archives
With over two decades of design experience, I’ve amassed a fascinating collection of work that documents the evolution of design trends. Below, you’ll find some examples from the 2000s. Keep in mind that web and graphic design standards have shifted significantly since then, so some commercial pieces might appear dated by today’s standards. However, they offer valuable insight into the aesthetics and techniques of the era.
Ive been involved in and out of the online design scene for over two decades. That seems like two whole lifetimes ago in the online space, such is the immense speed of change, and trying to keep up can sometimes be a challenge.
