My Story
I was born in Curitiba, Brazil, to a Brazilian mom and an Italian dad—so creativity and pasta have always been part of my DNA. 🌱
When I was 12, I fell in love with photo editing. I’d spend hours adding lights and text to images and customizing my Tumblr with HTML and CSS (even though I had no idea that was “coding” at the time!). I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to be—but I knew it had to be something creative, and definitely techy.
By 14, I was a birthday party photographer, and by 15, I’d organized my first group trip to São Paulo to see a concert—sold the van tickets and everything. Safe to say, I’ve always had a bit of an entrepreneurial streak. 😄
After school, I went into Journalism because I loved storytelling. But halfway through, something unexpected happened—I got a graphic design internship through a university talent board, and… I was hooked. I switched majors without looking back and fully dove into the world of design.
Before launching my career, I took a gap year to explore UI/UX and understand what kind of designer I wanted to be. That year turned into the best decision ever—I fell in love with travel, spent over a year across Europe, worked as a waitress and housekeeper, learned English, and visited 30 countries. 🗺️ That experience completely shaped how I see people, culture, and design.
In 2016, I landed my first full-time role as a UI/UX designer—and I was all in. Fast forward to 2020, and I packed my bags again—this time moving to the UK to keep growing as a designer. It was the biggest challenge of my life, but it also made a dream come true: to live and design abroad.
Now, I work in the UK blending everything I’ve learned—storytelling, systems thinking, design, and a whole lot of curiosity—into experiences that make people's lives a little easier (and a little more delightful). 💛
