About Me

UI/UX Specialist, team leader and product owner with experience working with different clients in a variety of areas such as healthcare, data, education, government and more, in North and South America, Europe and Oceania.

In 2017 I started an especialization in UI/UX. I have 5 years experience with freelancing, startups and, currently, I am UI/UX Specialist at Actminds, the international branch of Programmer's - Beyond IT(Brazil). I collect, research and evaluate user requirementes in order to deliver outstanding experiences and later develop the look and layouts that better communicate the logical paths visually for every application, dashboard and website developed by the my team. Before working as a UI/UX Designer I've had experience as a Logo Designer and Design Department Manager, being responsible for client's visual identity, collaborating with marketing teams, creative projects, social media, e-mail marketing and other activities.

My time is balanced between my job, my education and my family. On my free time I enjoy going to the movies and finding new great food/restaurants with my wife. We have a thing for hamburguers. I also love reading, playing games and watching sports.
