Hi,
I'm a Freelance Creative Director who had worked for all sorts of agencies (and also directly with clients) over the last 2 years. Before that, I was a CD for Google Play at R/GA. Simply put: I'm part of an amazing group of people that are shaping the Google Play brand into the future of entertainment.
Technology and storytelling are two vital elements in my career. No matter what brand I'm working with, I make these two things live together in harmony. It's my way to keep up with the world of today and still tell meaningful stories.
Over the span of my career, I had led the development of global creative campaigns for brands like Samsung, Canon, Volvo, Nivea, AbInbev, Procter & Gamble, and many others. In the process, I've learned how to work with multi-disciplinary talents across all channels of communication, and how to make a diverse group of people become a team. I've also harnessed my genuine interest in different cultures and human insights.
I started my career in Brazil in 2002, and since there, I bounced between, Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, London, Lisbon, and, over the last eight years, New York (with a Green Card : )
I'm a true believer that happiness is the way to do great and sustainable work. I'm all about building strong and long-lasting relationships; from the brands, I work with, to the people I have the honor to be around.
