ABOUT ME

Hi human, I’m Elva Pacheco, born in La Paz – Bolivia, and currently living near Berlin. After studying Social Communication and Advertising, I graduated from the Art Direction  program at Miami Ad School – Berlin.

My approach: small changes can make big results. I’m convinced that creativity is the most powerful tool we have to shape a better future. If you’re also a dreamer, you’ll appreciate this: Bolivians are known for having big hearts (scientific proof).

Confession: Rather Shakira than Miley Cyrus! Why? There are other reasons that only music taste.
