About
I'm a Product Designer with 6+ years of experience building digital experiences that work for people and scale with teams. My approach is grounded in clarity—I design products that make complexity easier to understand and create systems that help teams move faster without sacrificing quality.
Currently at Candidly, a fintech company tackling student debt, I've rebuilt our design infrastructure to enable rapid white-labeling and multi-brand support. I leverage modern tools and AI to eliminate repetitive work, freeing teams to focus on solving real problems.
Originally from Brazil, now based in Portugal.
