Born in Rio de Janeiro, 1986.
I am a UI/UX Designer with a background in graphic design and several years of experience working on websites and digital platforms in agency environments. My work focuses on creating clear, structured and visually consistent interfaces, often in collaboration with developers and project teams. I enjoy turning complex content and requirements into digital products that are easy to understand and use.
My background in visual design strongly influences the way I work today. I pay a lot of attention to typography, hierarchy, spacing and overall visual consistency, but at the same time I am very interested in structure, usability and system-based design. Over the past years, I have worked on projects in the healthcare and corporate sector, where projects often involved complex content, many stakeholders and technical constraints.
Today, I am particularly interested in UI/UX design for digital products, design systems and scalable interfaces. I enjoy working at the intersection of design, technology and usability, and I am currently continuing to develop my skills in UX, product thinking and AI-supported design workflows.
My Journey
Foundations in Design
I started my career in Brazil, where I studied Industrial Design and Graphic Design and began working in visual communication, branding and layout design. During this time, I developed a strong foundation in typography, composition, color and visual storytelling, which still influences the way I approach design today.
Moving into Digital Design
After moving to Germany, I continued my studies in Digital Media and started working in agency environments, where I focused more and more on websites and digital projects. This is where my work began to shift from purely visual design to digital interfaces, page structures and user interfaces. I worked on a wide range of projects including corporate websites, digital campaigns and interactive projects.
From Digital Design to UI/UX
Over time, my role became more focused on UI/UX design. I worked on structuring websites, creating wireframes, designing user interfaces and building component libraries and design systems in Figma. Many of the projects I worked on were complex websites and platforms, often in the healthcare and corporate sector, which required a structured and system-based design approach.
What I Focus On Today
Today, I work as a UI/UX Designer with a strong background in visual design and digital media. I am particularly interested in digital products, design systems and scalable interfaces, and I enjoy working at the intersection of design, technology and usability. Currently, I am continuing to develop my skills in UX methodology, product thinking and AI-supported design workflows.
