Iâm an international Creative (from Brazil) with background in Art Direction. I have a couple decades of world-wide experience at top tier advertising agencies like Wieden+Kennedy, BBDO, Fallon London, FCB, Ogilvy, DDB, Area23 and currently leading North America for VML Health. I've enjoyed a career as a hands-on creative and have led teams in both Consumer and Pharma, produced award-winning work and business-wining pitches.
I absolutely love my job. It allowed me to create things like glasses that help color blind people to see color for the first time, while selling paint; and a wearable device that encourages people to chill, while selling Joe Boxer pajamas, and even hacked a famous book cover to defeat bias in black maternal health.
Traditional or innovative, small or sized, idea-centered work with a high level of craft is my thing. Collaborating with, and learning from people with different backgrounds has made me a good listener and hopefully a good leader.
If your work doesnât make you feel something yourself, how will it ever influence your audience?
