About

A strategic thinker with design skills.

Born in Porto, I started as a multidisciplinary designer across brand, illustration and web, and grew into leading product design for consumer and B2B products.

I lead teams through the messy middle: framing problems with leadership, translating research into direction, and crafting experiences that customers adopt and businesses can measure.

Principles

01

Start with the outcome

Every project begins with what success means for the business and for the customer.

02

Evidence over opinion

Research and data shape decisions; taste shapes how they're expressed.

03

Adoption is the real launch

A feature isn't done when it ships, it's done when people use it.

04

Make it visible

Strategy only works when teams can see it, so I design the story, not just the screens.
