HELLO
I'm a Brazilian product designer who loves to build meaningful digital products that lead to concrete business results. Passionate about all around human behavior, I've always been fascinated by the convergence of art, design, technology, and life.
What gets me up in the morning is making everyday life easier and more enjoyable through thoughtful design. My work is to gather small bits of information about people's experience and merge them into a tailored design process to create a product that solves a problem. Over the past 6 years, I've been working at the intersection of product design and brand identity, fostering a people-focused design mentality across a variety of industries and crafting digital experiences for large and small companies.
I believe in wide curiosity, “stupid side projects” and ending up where you’re not supposed to be. When I am not working on projects, you will find me in a beach trying to surf, watching a classic movie (especially Fellini ones), taking random photographs, or working on a stupid side project. Yah, can't help it.

Adventures
Rappelled down the famous Anhumas abyss: an underground cave 73 meters deep lost in a forest in Bonito, Brazil. An incredible and completely immersive experience.
PS: I had to face (once again) my vertigo problem.
