Oi! My name is ☝ and I’m a creative director from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Since my move to New York in 2012, I’ve hijacked the news to combat sexism during the Olympics, revolutionized the stock photo industry to change the way women are represented in advertising, transformed tennis balls into US Open tickets, and scattered Star Wars ships across the country – to mention a few projects.
Outside of the ad world, you can find me testing my handyman skills in my new house (no major fuck-ups just yet), teaching myself piano, and running a small home decor business. All while taking care of a toddler with crazy hair.
