    Has no awards does not mean that my work is bad, some agencies no longer believe in the awards, are not, but I've been in the line of fire, taking the day day, with products or brands, they need immediate results. Well my team won a "EFI" I think it's a real prize. But I think your brand could be the first, if you give me the opportunity. And if you doubt, you can ask the creatives I've worked on my work. Que no tenga premios no significa que sea malo mi trabajo, algunas agencias dejan de creer en los premios, no participan, pero he estado en la linea de fuego, sacando el día día, con productos o marcas, que necesitan, resultados inmediatos. Bueno mi equipo gano un "EFI" creo que es un premio más real. Pero creo que tu marca podría ser la primera, si tu me das la oportunidad. Y si tienes duda, le puedes preguntar a los creativos con que he trabajado, sobre mi trabajo.
