This is the website of Javi(er) Fuentes. I am a New York based writer and creative director.
For about fifteen years I've worked in advertising/communications and personal projects.
Some of the work here has been recognized at the Radio Mercury Awards, FIAP (Festival
Internacional de Publicidad), Communication Arts, Festival de San Sebastián, and Ojo de
Iberoamérica among others. In 2011 I decided to take a break from the commercial
world and enrolled in the MFA in Creative Writing at Columbia University.

During these two years, I have pursued mostly literary writing but also screenwriting.
Personal and commercial projects fulfill me in different ways and, in my opinion, feed
from each other. Taking a sabbatical to work in purely creative projects has been
an amazing journey, not only creatively but personally.

This summer I will be imparting a course on Creativity for the Multicultural Market at
The School of Visual Arts. In the next academic year I will be teaching Creative Writing
in the Undergraduate Writing Program at Columbia University. I’m available for freelance
work and creative consulting and thrilled about what lies ahead.
