The Indios de Mayaguez project was a collaboration with a local professional basketball team to design apparel that connected players, staff and fans beyond the court. My goal was to reimagine the team’s classic identity through a streetwear lens, creating versatile pieces that resonated with the team while staying stylish and wearable on the daily.


I achieved this goal by combining vintage sports aesthetics, bold typography, and cultural symbolism. The city’s past culture served as great inspiration. This resulted in designs that unified the community through sport and culture.

The Criollos de Caguas collection was created in collaboration with Puerto Rico's most successful baseball team, to celebrate their legacy as the winningest franchise in the league. My role was to translate their history and prestige into a modern streetwear capsule that fans could wear proudly every day.


I achieved this goal by fusing classic baseball nostalgia with contemporary aesthetics. I used bold typography, and gold accents to accompany the team's color palette, and vintage card-inspired graphics as inspiration. This resulted in designs that honored their championships while keeping the look fresh, cultural and wearable beyond the stadium.

2024

Olympics 2024 was a special collaboration between two Puerto Rican brands, Pleito Company and Coloniv. Their goal was to celebrate the island’s past and present athletes who have represented them on the global stage.


My role was to design a capsule that fused athletic heritage with modern streetwear aesthetics. I created pieces featuring classic comic-book layouts, vintage sports graphics, and national color palettes that highlight pride, performance, and cultural identity in one cohesive collection.
