I've been working in the design world for over five years, during which I’ve developed and refined the core skills needed to succeed as a designer. In my last position, I served as Lead Designer, where everything design-related passed through me first. Each month, I worked directly with the employer to define and analyze which products should be highlighted, allowing me to craft a marketing strategy that shaped content across social media, newsletters, and other platforms. On a daily basis, I also managed tasks like creating mock-ups for client requests and delegated responsibilities to the rest of the team. Additionally, I was responsible for onboarding and training new team members, ensuring they integrated quickly and effectively into the workflow. I'm currently looking for a new opportunity that challenges me and allows me to continue growing, both creatively and professionally. I'm especially drawn to working with international teams, and I'm excited about the possibility of contributing to innovative projects with a meaningful impact. I’m more than open for a new career, that can make me blossom and evolve, both profissionaly as personally.

    paper GORILLAMAN | Tattoo Artist

    Gorillman Tattoo is a unique tattoo artist who blends raw energy with deep passion for anime. Known for bold lines and vibrant storytelling through ink, his identity needed to reflect that same power and personality. Inspired by his name and signature style, we created a custom anime-style gorilla head — a visual symbol of strength, creativity, and character. The design process focused on merging the fierceness of the gorilla with the dynamic flair of Japanese animation, resulting in a logo that feels both wild and iconic.
