About

My main professional background and studies are as product and industrial designer.

I am also a skilled illustrator and comics artist with many years of experience and some awards.

I also work with 3D animation and motion graphics (Flash, After Effects, Maya, 3D Studio MAX, Cinema 4D).

I'm passionate for all aspects of creation and for the combination of different skills and art forms.

I'm also experienced in very different working environments and I am used to dealing with all kinds of people.

Portuguese is my native language, but I'm also fluent in english, french and spanish.
