branding and graphic designer
Hi there,
I am a very creative, organized and branding-focused graphic designer with an educational background in design and philosophy. I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, but currently live and work in Toronto, Canada. In the last 13 years, I have worked for a diverse scope of accomplished companies plus an abundance of exciting freelance work.
I love being a designer because it requires a balance of creativity and reason. It is art and problem solving, inspiration and transpiration, spontaneity and concentration. The definition of this work and my personality are synonymous.
I generally pursue simple and conceptual design solutions. This is the reason why I am particularly passionate about brand identity. I enjoy seeing my work as part of a more extensive branding plan, and am even more passionate about helping create that plan.
I am very easygoing and naturally curious about unusual things, how things are made, science, philosophy, food, animation movies, children TV shows and marine aquariums.
