Apparently, speaking about oneself in the third person is the new first person. Which makes it slightly embarrassing. So here’s a short biography written in the fourth person.

Someone once said that someone once mentioned that Agustín is a Storyteller and Creative Director with an art background, based in NYC and an O-1B visa holder. No sponsorship required. Currently available for full-time or freelance opportunities.

A friend told someone who later repeated that his work has been recognised at international festivals such as Cannes and D&AD, and that he’s helped win pitches for brands like Buchanan’s, Pfizer, and Progressive in the U.S. market.

A former boss mentioned to someone, who apparently mentioned it again, that he has worked across the United States, Canada, Mexico, the U.K., Germany, Spain and Brazil, collaborating with agencies stubborn enough to still believe stories matter. Someone not particularly close to him insists that someone close to him maintains he’s picked up a few things along the way: strategy, storytelling, and a calm relationship with complexity.

A very close friend mentioned that a colleague once observed that, outside of advertising, he seems drawn to places that demand very different kinds of attention. He can wander through a museum for over six hours without noticing the time. Mountains, however, don’t allow for wandering. They require focus, respect, and a quiet understanding that turning back is sometimes the only sensible way forward.

His climbing partner told another climber, who seems to agree, that he climbs whenever he can. Strong enough for a V6 on a good day, although he tends to prefer alpine and sport routes, where patience usually matters more than strength. He has been above 6,000 metres more than once, and despite Everest being the most imposing mountain on Earth, the one that seems to stay with him is K2. Less obvious. More complex. Quietly uncompromising.

Make of that what you will.

But that may just be fourth-person exaggeration.
