Hi! For the past three years I’ve worked as a freelance artist, taking on a variety of projects such as cultural event illustrations, mural painting, animation studio work, commissioned pieces, and social media planning. This diversity has helped me stay flexible and curious, always ready to face new creative challenges with a collaborative spirit. I specialize in illustration and visual storytelling, collaborating with teams and mentoring students. Based between Estarreja and Porto, I enjoy turning concepts into expressive final pieces—hand-painted and frame-by-frame animated—and bringing ideas to life through design and art direction.
