Gio is a Puerto Rican Creative Director raised in Chicago and based in Brooklyn. His work — for brands like Apple, Netflix, American Express, and Diageo — rests on a simple belief: the right idea, built with care, clarity, and emotional tension, can shape how people see the world. Outside client work, he teaches young creatives to sharpen their voice, trust their instincts, and make something violently, beautifully creative.
