Hello! I’m Ricardo G. Barroso, a multidisciplinary designer and musician who thrives on turning ideas into engaging experiences. With training across communication science, music production, and web design, I love exploring how words, visuals, and sounds come together to connect people. Whether I’m crafting brand identities, designing intuitive interfaces, or composing a soundtrack for a live show, I bring curiosity, collaboration, and a hands-on approach to every project—aiming to create clear, inclusive, and lasting impact.
