Born in Rio de Janeiro, 1986.


My path towards design started with my passion for illustration. In 2004, I enrolled in the design course at the Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro, where I studied Graphic and Product Design for 6 years.

During my studies, I always looked for ways to improve myself through internships. I worked in different agencies in Rio de Janeiro and studied abroad for one semester at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach am Main.

I have always been interested in interactive experiences. In 2010, I moved to Germany to pursue a Bachelor in Digital Media with a focus in Animation and Games. The course combined my major interests- Illustration and Interactivity.

Since then, I have been creating Websites that combine enjoyable interactions with unique handcrafted visuals.
