Hi! I’m Luis.

About me

I was born in Guatemala City and lived there until I was 12, when my family and I moved to Guelph, ON, Canada. Growing up I spent a lot of time biking around, playing basketball and football (or “soccer” for my Canadians out there). Camping trips with family and friends taught me to love nature.

I’ve always loved learning how things work and how to make them better. Starting with a box of legos, getting my first toolbox when I was 8ish, taking apart small appliances (my parents were not impressed), to building my own “inventions“ from scrap electronic parts and found objects. This inevitably ended up with me studying Industrial Design at Carleton University.

What I do now

Today, I am a Product Designer working on designing new and innovative experiences. I live in Barcelona, Spain now – my wife and I moved in September 2024 and we are super excited to build our new home here.

Previously, I worked as a Senior Product Designer at Nascent. in Toronto, Canada, working on anything and everything design-related; from B2B marketing websites to consumer-facing apps and web-apps. Before that, I had the chance to work with and collaborate with amazing multi-disciplinary teams at Nulogy, Thinkingbox, and BlackBerry, where I worked on a variety of digital products.

What I’m looking for

To work on meaningful and impactful problems with a collaborative and talented group of people. Somewhere where I can push and be pushed to level up our collective problem-solving game.
