Web Design, Information Architecture, Higher-Ed - In 1999, I joined the two person team that would spearhead the redesign Florida International University(F.I.U.)'s 10 year old web site. During the discovery period, with the help of our team, I conducted a user experience study to gather information about the needs of the site’s most important users, the students. I also interviewed the stakeholders to address their needs and visions for the site, while helping them grasp the principle that a user centric site would help them reach their objectives while making their site more effective. Based on the collected data, I created personas, the Information Architecture, wireframes, and set the style guidelines for the newly redesigned F.I.U. site.The goal of the site was to make this site easy to use so that our prospective students can see what the university has to offer. Also, be user friendly for our current students, alumni, and staff.

After some extensive research on the design of the Miami Marine Stadium. One of the main attraction to the building is its architectural aspect. It has a geometric, minimalistic look that catches the eye. In a sense, a modernistic look of the time and for Miami. My design was to convey the simple but amazing geometric shapes of the architecture. The blue color is for the water, the yellow is for the sun.Print Design2012 -

It's a sensitive topic amongst the Chilean people as to what was the right course in history for Chile. Was having a socialist president like Allende (elected by the people) and his communist ideas for the country to radical for its people to handle? Was having General Pinochet (President and Dictator) a savior for the country of Chile by overthrowing Allende to bring back democracy?
In the end, blood was spilled in order for democracy to exist, but perhaps blood would of been spilled if Allende would of stayed in power as well. Nonetheless, this is the issue that divides the country socially where only 'el tiempo cura las heridas' or 'time will heal the wounds.'Print Design, Graphic Design, Typography2012 -
