Santi and Nico are essentially advertising and food nerds.

With over ten years of experience working for highly recognized global, regional, and Argentine brands, and nine years together, they have forged a fruitful and successful career in the advertising industry. They are based in Madrid (EU passport holders) and work for ISLA Agency, primarily focusing on the Latin American market.

Santi and Nico have earned the trust of agencies such as Geometry Global, Wunderman Thompson, Hoy by Havas, and Publicis Italy to collaborate on projects for Heineken, Degree, Hellmann's, Doritos, Flamin' Hot, The Miami Foundation, Flybondi Airlines, and SeSocio by Blockchain.com. They have been integral team members alongside internationally renowned talents such as Mihnea Gheorghiu (CCO Publicis Italy), Rodrigo Grau (CCO ISLA, and Former CCO BBDO Argentina, JWT Brazil, and David Brazil), Ariel Serkin (CCO ISLA, and Former CCO Del Campo Saatchi & Saatchi), Pablo Maldonado (ECD Grey Dubai), Checha Agost Carreño (CCO Founders, former Latam CCO Ogilvy), Tony Waissmann (CCO Republica Havas Miami and former Latam CCO Hoy Havas), Dany Minaker, and "Patan" Tarazaga (CCOs WT LATAM and Global ECDs).

Thanks to the impactful outcomes of their creative work, Santi and Nico have received numerous awards from the most relevant international festivals, including a Grand Prix at Cannes, and over fifty other accolades from Cannes Lions, Clio, One Show, New York Festivals, LIA, Epica, Effie, among others. For them, the most significant achievement was being awarded the best creative team in Argentina in 2021 (just look at their happy faces in the photo).

In their downtime, Santi enjoys playing paddle and supporting River Plate, his favourite Argentine football team, while Nico finds pleasure in watching anime, cooking, and passionately supporting Boca Juniors, River Plate's perennial rival team.
