Mr. Fúchila

Órale! I’m a first-gen Chicano artist, designer, curator of culture, story teller, community builder, and eternal side-hustler.

MY CREATIVE MENU

After 12+ years at Apple & Google, I pivoted (aka laid off) into an independent curator of culture based in Gilroy, CA.

Arts, Culture & Wellness Workshops

Bridging the gap between arts, culture and wellness, I help facilitate and execute unique, cross-sector partnerships vital for programming success.

Branding, Graphic Design, & Art Direction

  • Specializing in small to medium businesses, non-profits and arts organizations with a focus on the Latinx community, I provide scalable design solutions to empower your team long term.

Community-based Murals, & Public Art

  • Culturally nuanced and community-based, I help design and facilitate large scale works of art for schools, businesses and real estate developments

Brand strategy Consultation and Cultural Curation

  1. Leverage my cultural capital, network, and brand strategy expertise to guide your next community-based program or rebranding project.

So Why Fúchila?

"Fúchila" is Mexican slang for "smelly".


In 2015, I founded Fúchila Fresheners, an iconic, international Chicano air freshener and nostalgic collectibles brand out of San José, CA that's been on Buzzfeed, Netflix, and Starz.


I became Mr. Fúchila. The name stuck.
