HI!
My name is Gonzalo Fernandez but everyone calls me “Mountain”.
It’s not because I’m tall, I’ll tell you why if we ever meet.
I’ve been working in advertising since 2002, that’s 20 years and counting. It’s a lot but I’m still passionate about what I do (Maybe it’s because I’m passionate about everything I do).
I live in Argentina, and currently work in an agency (Grey Argentina) as an E.C.D. (Executive Creative Director) together with Juan Ure, but I also do freelance work and I’m always open to opportunities. If you want to work with me and help me survive in Argentina, or anything else like play a Street fighter II match against me, contact me at:
gonzalomontanafernandez@gmail.com
P.S.: I’m very good at Street fighter II.
Also...
Take a peek at my ilustrations:
