Along with an architect, I embraced a business concept, which meant gathering in a single location studio many artistic fields, such as architecture, graphic/product design and also Web design. My role as a Co-Founder was to seek potential clients, prepare design briefs and concepts, and always understand and address the client's needs. Ran projects from conception to completion, including the management of a few graphic and web design projects.
KEY ACHIEVEMENTS:
Managed all the projects from concept to fabrication. Accountable for all the production information, estimates, timing and supervision of the manufacturing process. Developed excellent communication skills in dealing with clients. Responsible for several key projects for AutoRibeiro, being the most relevant "Ambulance Control+", which was achieved by addressing the client and presenting the idea. It is currently a standard feature in their ambulances.

As a Retail designer included store development for clients such as IKEA and Vista Alegre. I gained great experience in approaching products in a strategic way, always considering the quality and cost-effective manufacturing solutions.
KEY ACHIEVEMENTS:
Learn the ability to work under pressure and on tight schedules. Became a hands-on designer, with greater organizational and time management skills.
