I'm a Brazilian designer living in Auckland, New Zealand.
I enjoy crafting products and systems, with a focus on interaction design, a deep care for function and quality, and a growing passion for code.
I'm currently lead product designer at Basis, a Kiwi startup drawn to accelerate the green energy revolution with the world's first smart panel.
Previously, I have had the opportunity to work on a wide-range of projects across branding, visual identity, digital, and product design with early-stage startups, design studios and more on LinkedIn.
When not designing, you can find me in nature with my dog, cooking, reading, playing the guitar or taking photos. I'm always listening to music and I do yoga every day.
I'm usually on Are.na, and lately on Github.
