HOLA, MUCHO GUSTO!
Hello, My name is Gabriel Gilberto Velazquez Zazueta. I was born and raised in Mexico City. I moved to New York City in 2005 and have been happy to call it my home. I love this city and it continues to be a huge source of inspiration for me.
My design career spans two decades, during which time I have had the privilege to participate in a vast variety of disciplines including print and digital media, brand identity and development, digital and film photography, fashion design, fashion accessories design and production, textile design and printing as well as numerous fine art fabrication processes. the last of my endeavors is the world of Agave and Mezcal working as design director for an incredible mezcal brand produced in Oaxaca Mexico.
I have a degree in Graphic Design and a Master’s degree in Education. From my studies in these two disciplines, I have developed a deep conviction in the importance of being curious and remaining an active learner. My work ethic is that of an immigrant whose desire to achieve success is rooted in a culture of hard work, humility and the ability to see the good in people.
