I started my creative journey in Brazil, refined my skills with some of London’s finest, and set sail to the sunny shores of California.
Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of working with some truly inspiring people and brands — Wieden + Kennedy, 72andSunny, Google Brand Studio, CP+B, and even served as the Global CD for Apple’s Instagram handle. I’m currently hanging with the brilliant folks at YouTube Creative Studio.
Picked up a BAFTA and a few other trinkets along the way, yet the raging impostor syndrome never quite leaves. But hey, it keeps me on my toes.
Beyond the day job, I’ve co-founded a tech startup and became a partner in the first gaming-themed pizza chain in Latin America. In the nooks and crannies of my schedule, I’m working on a cyberpunk novella I dream of self-publishing one day.
It’s been a ride, to say the least.
Whether you need a CD to lead teams or a creative proficient in both art and copy, I’m available for projects worldwide.
