Multi-disciplinary-heart creative living in the heart of NYC.
Yep, and I believe it's all about heart: to create is an act of love. And I'll prove it: we fall in love with ideas. We nurture them, we care for them. We take 'em by the hand and introduce them to the world – with the most beautiful and dedicated craft we can. We do our very best, as loving parents do. And that’s about diversity, about people, and a mirror to our true selves.
Now a little word about myself :)
In my last gig in Brazil, I worked as a Creative Director at Tech and Soul, an independent agency in São Paulo. Over almost six years, we grew from a shared coworking room to a 100-employee agency, working with major brands like C6 Bank, Mitsubishi Motors, Dove, Uber, and many others.
In 2022 I moved to NYC and joined Area 23, one of the most awarded agencies in the world. I work as Creative Director on special projects, concepting, and at The Refinery, a unit focused on craft. I was part of the team that helped achieve Healthcare Agency of the Year at Cannes Lions (2022/23/24) for three consecutive years.
I'm an art director, illustrator, design thinker, former goalkeeper, motorcycle enthusiast, retired PlayStation FIFA player, aspiring boxer, dog parent, and eternal experimenter – always ready to fall in love with the next idea.
