Originally from Mexico City, Alberto is now an industrial design creative lead for Hardware at our Mountain View headquarters. Above he’s holding an original molcajete from his grandma, a tool used to make salsa from scratch. On his work, he says, “Growing up in a vibrant city with a mix of cultures (the hyper-modern and the ancient traditions co-existing), shaped my method of problem-solving and tackling challenges. One of the most interesting challenges of my job is translating Google’s brand values—being “approachable,” for example—into physical objects.” #HispanicHeritageMonth
