I consider myself a multimedia professional, with creative, management and leadership skills.

In my 16-year career, I have explored several creative areas such as graphic design, digital design, brand strategy, experience design, production, content, audiovisual and events. I have brought together this knowledge to conceive possible ideas and lead multidisciplinary teams.
