Briefly about me.

After completing my degree in Communication Design in Lisbon, I started my career in advertising working for global brands such as Heineken, Accenture and Coca Cola. It was later in London that I got into Product Design and the startup world.

Having worked with both, big agencies and small to medium size startups, I’ve experienced a range of different products in different domains over the last 11 years.

I now mostly spend my time between London, Ljubljana and Lisbon.

 

My path so far.

 

Since 2018

Helping pre-launch and early stage startups set the right Design foundations. A few of the clients I’ve helped are Veremark, Paired, Utelly and Abelium.
