Hello everyone, found David popping in my FYP and thought, this sounds interesting. So I joined here. I've been tinkering with an idea for Latino fine artists in the USA, and as a designer, I always come up with names, branding, layouts, etc., but I always stall at a certain point and end up on the back burner. Maybe reading posts here, I can learn a thing or two. Glad to be here. Saludos! 👋

Hey everyone, it’s been a minute. Still been putting in the work even if I haven’t been as visible. Big news first: I welcomed my son Santiago at the end of March. Same day you all were having your in-person meetup On the business side, Ruelas Co. has evolved quite a bit over the last year. When we last connected, I was focused primarily on building a leather goods product line and moving away from custom work toward more scalable designs. Since then, I’ve leaned heavily into experiential work like interactive leather craft workshops and brand activations. (If yall remember the MVP interactive activity I had at Pitch Latino, that has grown into one of my main experience offerings!) In the last month alone, I’ve led experiences for Vuori and Lexus, creating hands-on leathercraft activations tied to community, hospitality, and cultural storytelling. Not bad with a newborn at home.More to come. Good to be back.

Quick weekly update, I’ve been busy with personal life stuff lately (family + kids) but I’ve also committed to completing a few projects in the next few weeks, so I’ve activated the “Web Design Mode”. I’ll be trying to complete a few projects at once and staying active online. Saludos :) https://vimeo.com/1197585052

Hi everyone! As some of you know, I have been working with a psychologist friend from Colombia; some of you met her at the last ALPFA networking night. She is planning a series of workshops at her office in Bonita, California. For those local to San Diego who have some free time, she’ll be conducting a workshop later today called "Modelos Mentales." The workshop is conducted in Spanish, as much of her audience consists of Latina entrepreneurs and moms, but it is also open to men and couples. If you’re interested in joining, here is the link to register for today’s session (3:30 PM – 6:30 PM): 📍 Location: 3130 Bonita Road, Suite 106 Chula Vista, CA 91910 As usual, I’ll be there helping her with the video and technical tasks. Hope to see you there if you can make it! 🔗 Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/modelos-mentales-descubre-como-activar-tu-poder-transformador-tickets-1985458122692?aff=oddtdtcreator Saludos!
