About me

I’m a 25-year-multidisciplinary experienced Designer, Art Director, and Illustrator with passages through the main advertising and digital agencies in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I’m used to managing creative teams and also starting and maintaining digital transformation processes. At present, I'm the Head Designer at “Rede D'Or São Luiz” which is a major health company in Brazil. We form a poll of 72 hospitals all over the country.
As a former advertising creative director, I have acquired experience with a huge range of clients, projects, communication aspects, presentations, pitches, etc. As a former entrepreneur, I bring a different business view on how projects and teams can be managed, including finance and general management. I am an experienced consultant, which brings me to an open approach to business, operations, finances, governance, etc.
I feel incredibly comfortable in a diverse range of creative projects. I like to explore different techniques, approaches, and design processes and also dive into advanced technology research. To provide a superior engagement to the company’s clients, I also use the “Internet of Things”, advertising, storytelling, and many other tools coming from different sources.
