What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a marketing leadership role where brand, growth, product, and business sense meet. I want to bring structure to undefined problems, build data-informed strategy, and work across teams and international markets.

I've led brand, growth, and product marketing across Fettástica (self-employed) and City Storage Systems, connecting positioning, data, customer insight, and operations to deliver measurable business results.

As co-owner and Marketing Lead at Fettástica, I share accountability for a pizza brand reaching approximately R$4M in annual revenue. I led its São Paulo expansion from location and product through brand, team, and operations, while driving three consecutive years of flagship growth: +42%, +32%, and +21%.

At Otter and Future Foods, I localized product and go-to-market strategy across LATAM, with support for EMEA and APAC. I led rebrands across Brazil, Mexico, and Australia, launched and managed virtual food brands, and grew organic traffic by roughly 60% in six months.

Earlier at Amcham-Brasil, I built data culture, OKRs, dashboards, marketing automation, and a seven-person growth team. I'm most energized by undefined problems: bringing order to messy operations and making brand, product, growth, data, and people move together.

The marketing operation existed, but without structure, metrics, or consistent tracking. I organized that work — attribution, KPIs, and processes — turning scattered data into decisions and growth. Structuring, measuring, and optimizing is the part of the work I enjoy most.
