I build brands, motion content, and AI products with measurable operational impact.

Brazil
Message

I lead design and product work at Criar Convites, where I manage 150+ active templates, strengthen brand guidelines, and cut asset retrieval time by 30% through a new file-management system.

I progressed from Graphic Designer to Senior Graphic Designer within 18 months, training and onboarding five+ designers and improving team efficiency by 20%. I also built a prioritized internal product roadmap that produced a production system, a company-owned customer product, and a long-term operating-platform initiative.

At WDA.AG, I created video and motion content for multinational clients using After Effects and Premiere, helping improve campaign engagement by 35%. Earlier, I led an end-to-end university rebrand at CESVA/FAA and produced photo and drone footage that increased social reach by 40%.

I’m also the founder of Ponto Cego, where I run an AI product focused on defensible unit costs, model quality, and reliable measurement. My work spans graphic design, branding, motion design, video editing, Unreal Engine 5 environments, product operations, and software development.
