AutoStack “Taking It To The Next Level” I co-founded and led a company, playing a pivotal role in its growth and operations. A trip to China resulted in a strategic partnership, granting us exclusive rights to distribute products in America, requiring complex negotiations and collaboration with international partners and engineers.

As the creative force behind Autostack, I developed our brand and all marketing materials, including from the website to catalogs. Additionally, I structured the company, implementing a robust CRM system for efficient operations.

I managed projects from inception to completion, ensuring seamless installations and client satisfaction, further establishing our reputation in the industry.

01

Branding I conceived the name 'Autostack' to clearly convey the concept of automated stacking for parking solutions. This name quickly gained recognition in Tijuana, where more people began associating rotary parkings with Autostack. I also crafted the branding, slogan, and business cards to further establish our identity and message.

Website Design I successfully designed and developed our website using WordPress, where I created all the necessary materials, including 3D models, renderings, and spec sheets. This comprehensive approach ensured that our online presence effectively showcased our products and services, contributing to our overall success.

Advertisment I orchestrated a successful advertising campaign for Autostack, utilizing electronic billboards and fully rendered animations to effectively convey our message. These efforts were instrumental in attracting clients, as these is the way we got all of our clients.

Project: El Mentor College

2020-2022

At El Colegio Mentor, I led a transformative project to expand parking and create a new plaza. By installing two innovative rotary parking systems, we maximized space, adding 32 parking spots in just 814 square feet. My role encompassed design, planning, and hands-on supervision, including coordinating with Chinese engineers for technical integration. This project not only met immediate needs but also laid the foundation for future development, showcasing our commitment to excellence and innovation.

Two rotary systems and a plaza: maximizing space.

The project was completed in 2 years.

DESIGN In the initial phase of the El Colegio Mentor project, our focus was on integrating the rotary parking systems. However, as the project progressed, the school's director entrusted me with a broader vision—to develop a plaza on the opposite side of the school. Taking on this expanded role, I not only designed the plaza but also seamlessly integrated it with the rotary systems.

My responsibilities extended to developing detailed designs, including drawing plans for city approval and obtaining necessary permits. To visualize the concept, I created 3D renders that effectively communicated the proposed design. These designs were submitted for city approval, paving the way for the project's commencement.

Throughout the project, I oversaw the construction of the foundation and all related aspects, ensuring that the vision was executed with precision. As the project evolved, the director sought a more streamlined approach, prompting me to adapt the design to meet the new requirements. This experience demonstrated my ability to not only envision and design but also to adapt and deliver in response to evolving project needs.

On Hold

The client required a solution for their apartment building, they required 14 parking spaces but had no space. We impress our clients with our parking rotaries and quick turn around. After discussion with their architecture and engineering team, we decided to make modifications to their current construction to allow for the rotary system.

We worked on the proposal and planning of installation.

3D drawings were made to share the process of installation.

Current site with model superimposed. Construction had already begun when we arrived, and needed a quick turn around to avoid any delays.

Project: Tower

On hold

The client required a solution where they could park in the street level while not occupying significant space. After the discussion, the team of architects and engineers redesigned their building to fit with our new system. They were impressed with our work and knowledge, and decided to go with 15 of our rotary systems.

Due to their structure we had to plan accordingly for concrete

The client's project was saved with our systems. Simultaneously, the government was more than willing to give building permission, as the city needs more of our parking systems.
