About Me
Addicted to typography, grids, Bézier curves and arroz de cabidela, I’m a designer focused on branding and marketing, with a dash of motion design and deep-rooted experience in the crypto and blockchain industry. I speak Portuguese, English, and Spanish, and I’ve lived in Porto, Barcelona, London, and Rio de Janeiro.
I graduated from ESEIG, spent an Erasmus semester in London, and completed my internship in Barcelona. From 2011 to 2018, I worked at Nor267 design studio in Porto while juggling freelance projects and collaborations. Between 2019 and 2022, I went fully freelance, working with clients and studios across a variety of industries.
In 2022, I joined Binance and was soon invited to lead the design team at BNB Chain, where I stayed until October 2023. I then led creative teams at Fintopio and Entangle, and most recently worked as Senior Visual Designer at Caldera, leading their rebrand ahead of the Token Generation Event.
Beyond the screen, I’m a co-founder of Colectivo RUA, a street art collective based in Porto.
Always up for a coffee (or a cabidela) to discuss new projects.
