Who am I?
I am a Digital Product Designer with multi-disciplinary experience ranging from mobile and desktop, to fabrics and tangible designs. I'm from Brazil 🇧🇷 and currently based in sunny Florida 😎🙌🏻.
What have I done?
I've worked for over 10 years with visual identity and design in multiple fields: theater, fashion, luxury brand marketing and tech.
I crafted designs that told stories, evoked emotions, reached millions of impressions and became feasible solutions in bridging the gap between companies and their customers.

But really...who am I?
I am a curious being, history buff, persistent and passionate about optimizing design. I am a problem-solver and storyteller with a knack for efficient processes, organization, and pixel-perfect design.
UX/UI became the natural transition for me as it encompasses several elements of my previous theatrical world: design, psychology, empathy, research, analysis, and working with people to develop useful things that bring impactful results. I strongly believe that collaboration between teams is essential to creating a system of systems resulting in scalable, consistent, and meaningful products. I am a huge advocate of research, discovering underlying reasons to "whys", and believe that a better UI design is achieved through a structured (yet adaptable) UX design process (Lean UX and Agile Methodologies for the win!).

🌟 Apart from design, I love:
|
• Animals (love elephants)
• Singing • Dancing (shout out to ballet dancers out there) • Music (anything from Ella Fitzgerald to EDM) |
• Star Wars
• Brazilian Churrasco (Picanha com uma farofinha) • Skittles • Oh, and traveling of course |
And I can't deny my slight obsession with stickies...😅
