Author Biography
Mike Alfaro is a writer, creative director, and pop-culture fanboy. Born and raised in Guatemala, he moved to California after turning 18 in search of the American dream. How cliché. Since then, he's created several successful ad campaigns for major U.S. brands and also launched the viral Instagram account @millennialloteria. He is happily married and currently developing a movie based on his experiences as a Hispanic millennial immigrant.
Gerardo Guillén is an award-winning Art Director, musician, and professional pizza lover. Bilingual and bicultural, he was born in El Paso but spent most of his youth in Juárez, Mexico. It was cheaper, but he was also "all about that border life." He currently has a chill gig as an Associate Creative Director at a boutique ad agency in Los Angeles, where he lives with his wife and two puppies.
