About David Pacheco Garcia

👋 Hola/Hello! I'm David!

Designer specializing in experience design + 3d visualization.

I've worked as an experience designer for the past 3 years exploring the use of 3d visualization and branding to connect new and loyal users to products and services. In other words, I've created unique 3d digital experiences to help clients win and keep customers. Win-win right?

When I'm not balancing the needs of users and business goals, I'm conquering mountain trails and sharing my design knowledge to those who will listen.
