From Brazil,
based in Dubai_
01. Intro & About
I'm a Brazilian-Italian senior art director with over 15 years of experience across graphic design, advertising, branded content, shopper experience, and packaging.
Passionate about creativity and craft, I've brought that energy to collaborations with major brands like Coca-Cola, Citibank, Mastercard, Ford, Tiffany & Co., and Stellantis (including Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, and Jeep).
My early career took me to Amsterdam, New York, and San Francisco, shaping a global perspective on design and storytelling.
