I’m a global creative who’s been obsessing over advertising for 12+ years, from Lisbon to Paris, São Paulo to Portland, and now New York. 

I launched the Quem é Quem Project in Portugal to champion young creatives with mentorship and talks, and today, I proudly run every aspect of it single-handedly.

I’m also a columnist at a Portuguese newspaper called Marketeer, where I get to geek out about advertising.

If you’re just starting out in this business and need someone to decode the madness, I’ve got you. And if you’re running an association tied to a cause I care about, animal rights, homelessness, LGBTQ+ rights , I’ll happily volunteer my brain for ideas.
