About
hello / ol� my name is Ana. I am from Lisbon, Portugal and now I live in Amsterdam, Netherlands where I make the most out of webdesign and visual identities. In the end every detail counts, even when having fun. I also take daily photos from what I see around me, things, places, folks, happenings. Now and then I draw. This is growing in me and writing will follow. To see, to listen, to speak sets my mind loose and boosts my creativity.
