I started working when I was 20 years old as a practice graphic designer, then I got hired, but I felt like my creativity was always limited. I wanted to be able to see my projects completed, so I started to make vinyl for cups, coffee mugs, shirts, and different media at home. I had such demand that in six months, I decided to open a store. I had so many customers and appointments that I wasn’t able to have a job and have my shop at the same time so I decided to quit. It was really hard but definitely the best decision.

I always worked at technology companies even when I was not an engineer and I realized that to build great technology you need a good team, common sense, and product vision - that is why I started Common Sense. Also, we opened a new market instead of competing with development or software agencies. We add value and have a difference when we offer product concept design and software development. We create our own methodologies to deliver value and what our customers need.

In 2010, I started to work my investigation into eggshells and nutshells into my thesis. I collaborated with material engineers, but my main concern was finding the right recipe for creating a completely sustainable and biodegradable material that did not rot or break down easily. Initially, I reprocessed the shells by combining them with synthetic resin. The resulting material looked great and was mechanically hard, but I felt guilty for using an artificial resin and not allowing the material to decay ecologically. Now, our process is different. Before disposal, the shells are collected, sterilized, dried, and then ground down. This material is then bonded with organic and biodegradable substances, creating a mixture that can be handled through different production techniques.
