With over 15 years of experience as a graphic designer, I am currently specializing in UX and UI Design through Design Circuit. I hold a postgraduate degree in Digital Marketing and Social Media from Faculdade dos Guararapes, a degree in Graphic Expression from UFPE (2011), and a technical degree in Graphic Computing and Web Design from UNIBRATEC (2005). I was the winner of the logo design contest for DALEG (Department of Licensure in Graphic Expression) at UFPE. Throughout my career, I have worked as a designer in major organizations, including Petrobras – RNEST
(as a contractor), Sebrae, Sescoop, IF Goiano, and various advertising agencies. My focus has always been on creating visual solutions that not only strengthen brand identity but also drive strategic results and have a direct impact on business outcomes.
I also worked as a teacher for the Government of the State of Pernambuco, teaching at technical schools ETEPAM and Miguel Batista. I taught courses in graphic computing, visual identity, and production design, sharing my knowledge and training new professionals. Currently, I work as a freelance designer, a strategic transition that has enhanced my skills in negotiation, time management, client relationships, and creative problem-solving. My approach blends strategic vision with precise execution, ensuring impactful visual solutions that balance aesthetics, functionality, and user experience.
