A course by Raúl Salazar
A graduate in advertising and public relations, and staunch defender of creativity in any department and sector, Raúl has undertaken countless creative projects. In 2006, along with other colleagues, he founded the Círculo Rojo advertising agency, where he was in charge of the creative department and the design area. He has combined this in recent years with other marketing roles in other non-agency projects.
Currently, he is reaping the fruits of those years when he kept his own blog of cartoon humor and current affairs, Un Respeto a las Canas , which has led him to publish continuously in the satirical magazine El Jueves or in various online newspapers.
