I still don't have the right words for this, I can only feel it.
This month, Madrepunk™ won an Awwwards No-Code Honors. My first award, and my first international recognition.
In 2024 I walked out of a job with no plan B and decided to bet on myself, freelance, on my own terms, building the kind of work I actually wanted to make. That's the year Madrepunk started.
It's also when I got serious about @framer. There was no going back after that. Since then: 25+ projects, some just UI/UX, others full builds from design to code.
I spent that whole time watching designers I admire, studying how they think, training my eye project after project, not talent, just repetition.
Two years in, this feels like proof the direction is right, and I'm already working toward the next one.
To everyone who backed me, believed in this, and voted for my work: thank you. This is as much yours as it is mine.
