I am a Portuguese designer and art director, based in Stockholm, specialising in branding. Currently working at Volvo Cars, where I work as an art director to help define the visual expression for next generation car UI.

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with amazing people and brands in Portugal, Sweden, and the US, in both the fields of advertising and design. Where my work is typically showcased through identity, brand design, visual design, typography, and art direction.

Today, my focus is to bring my experience and craft into product design, bridging the gap between disciplines and helping create consistent and engaging user experiences. While safeguarding brand integrity, pushing for quality output, and ensuring the brand message remains strong and coherent.

I'm always open to engaging in collaborations and consultancy related to brand and identity design. Sometimes, I share my experience and journey about my role as a brand designer in the tech industry at talks for Hyper Island.
