I consider my self a visual communicator in all aspects of my life, as a professional designer, or as a not so professional illustrator, travelers photographer and cooks person. Being born and living my role life in Brazil I‘ve became an enthusiast of plural cultural visual expressions.
I began my interest in visual communication in 2010 at the Summer Program, Parson The New School for Design, New York City. Where I took a pre-college, fully immersive course that features project-based learning, art and design field trips, guest lecturers from industry, and portfolio reviews.
I entered the Graphic Design graduation with a focus on communication at ESPM in 2011, where I also did a semester of Art Direction and Visual Communication at IADE, Creative University, Lisbon, 2013.
*In 2014 I participated in AGI Open and AGI Congress one of the largest design congresses in the world, as part of the monitorship program
In 2015 I entered the world of research and strategy with design and visual narratives at Box1824 serving clients such as: Nike, Spotify, Bienal, Redley, Ambev, Globo, iFood, Vivo, Melissa, Itaú, Mckinsey, and many others.
I worked too as a freelance professional in research projects and communication strategy, language, presentation design, visual narratives and branding, serving clients such as Instituto Update, Envisioning, WGSN, Box1824, Contente, Aurora.io, Trop, Memphis, Projeto Folk, Casa Roncador, Float, FES, RISE, Contagious, among some others.
In 2020 I completed a Master in Design with emphasis on research and development of projects focused on collaboration and social transformation, from a scientific, critical and sustainable perspective and based on material, technological and conceptual experimentation. At the Bau Centro Universitario de Diseño, Barcelona.
Currently I work as Brand Designer Lead in the branding team of Stone, working primarily with consistency and care of the brand portfolio in the most diverse visual creative unfoldings. Aside from that I keep my research personal project, the practice of design through listening, looking and drawing, you can follow me and see more of it here.
As a profesional I am always studying and experimenting with new design methodologies and practices centered on people, belonging, usability, accessibility and pluriversality. Among my daily practices, the priorities are:
1. To always invite more people to the design process.
2. To listen and look at the everyday and bio regional recovering ways of thinking and recognizing new epistemic foundations.
3. Asking more questions than designing immediate responses.
4. Allowing myself to error more in favor of real inovation and transformation.
5. A truly committment not only to planings and deliverys, but with the creative process itself.
