About Team Pitaya
Roberto Salvador Gallegos Ricci
Founder Pitaya
I was born in Mexico City, grew up in Tijuana, B.C and studied my bachelors in Business and Marketing in Guadalajara, Jalisco. At 22 years of age I founded my first Agency by the name of Gámomo Creative Lab where I now act as a consultant.
A couple of years later I fell in love with an amazing Güerita and we decided to do a small bicycle trip that resulted on a trip around the world by bicycle (you can buy our book and learn all about it here or read our blog). When the tour was finished we got married, found jobs and an apartment in Munich. We have been living here since. However instead of two we are now three.
I have more than two decades in the marketing and design game, it’s my passion and most importantly my vocation. I founded Pitaya Marketing & Design Agentur because I believe in the power of collaboration to deliver efficient marketing strategies, beautiful design to help your brand stand out.
Reach out, I am always available for a chat.
Marcos E. aka JAY
Head of Design and Web
I was born and raised in Tijuana, and my connection with creativity started at a very young age. At 16, I began teaching myself graphic design, spending hours experimenting, making mistakes, and learning along the way. Not long after, I became deeply interested in programming and started using HTML and CSS to build custom MySpace profiles for well-known artists. That stage of my life changed everything for me. I realized I could create identities and experiences from a computer, and from that moment on, I knew it was what I wanted to do.
Over time, that curiosity turned into a multidisciplinary path. I naturally got involved in web design, creative direction, photography, video production, and even audio work, always looking for new ways to bring ideas to life in a visual and emotional way. Most of what I know comes from hands-on experience, building projects from the ground up, and working closely with artists, brands, and independent creators. I also maintain a solid alliance with Pitaya Agentur for many years, which has allowed me to expand my reach and collaborate on creative projects within a more international environment.
Today, I lead The Visionary Creators, the agency that represents my journey and everything I’ve built over the years. For me, this goes beyond design and development. It’s about helping people take what they imagine and turn it into something tangible, something they can truly see and feel. What started as a teenage passion gradually became a lifelong vocation shaped by creativity, independence, and the constant drive to keep building and evolving.
What is a Pitaya anyway?
It’s a majestic, exotic and colorful fruit that grows on a cactus species indigenous to the enigmatic American continents. One fundamental characteristic of the Pitayas is the way they stand out in the vast and monochromatic landscape of the desert.
Let us make your brand be as identifiable, appealing & memorable as a Pitaya fruit.
