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.
Â
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.
Â
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.
Â
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.
