I’m a Latino dad, storyteller, and digital creator based in Utah—trying to balance 🎥, familia 👨👩👧👧, creativity, and a lifelong hunt for the perfect 🌮. Around here, I share the little chispas that keep me going: creator tips, behind-the-scenes from my projects, lessons from dad-life, and honest thoughts on trying to build cool things without losing myself in the grind. If you’re a creator, a business owner, or just someone who loves learning from another human figuring it out in real time… bienvenido. Grab a taco and hang out.
You don't always win

But between you and me it’s been very difficult to see the good, and the hope in the world right now. I have to remind myself that there is hope.
