My name is Martin Rodriguez. I was born in Uruguay, Montevideo. Growing up I was a very hands-on kid. I loved moving things around and making them look cool, and I loved woodworking and designing. I made all sorts of gadgets for my friends and I to play with. As I started High School, I realized there was a form for me to show my imagination and creativity. So I took a major in Communication Technology, and four years later graduated with the certificate. That was where I learned about the Adobe products. I fell in love with the idea of everything I could create with this tool. Two months later I was taking my first Graphic Design classes at Digital Media Arts College (DMAC) and honed my skills as a Designer in order to become a problem solver for any design need.
