Erwin Arias

I was born and raised in Mexico City, where I completed undergraduate studies in Biology and obtained a Ph.D. in Biomedical Science. Afterwards, I moved to the United States to pursue postdoctoral training at the University of Michigan.

One of the most valuable skills that I developed as a scientist is the ability to communicate complex ideas effectively. My interest in communication transcended my scientific work and led me to start a photography practice independently; first as a street photographer, exploring photographic styles and visual narratives; and more recently, as a commercial photographer working on assignments for brands like Bring A Trailer, Cars and Bids, Heal.Me, and Oak Street Health.

I’m based in St. Louis, Missouri, open to work on commissioned assignments.
