About me

Hello! I'm a Portuguese graphic designer + illustrator currently based in London. My background is in Contemporary Arts Practice, where I specialized in Graphic Arts and Fine Arts during my bachelor's degree. I then went to the Goldsmiths University of London and took a Master's degree in Computational Arts, where I got to learn to use coding languages creatively (mainly Javascript and C++). I've also taken a course in UX/UI design, and it's currently what I focus on with the majority of my freelance work with clients. I like to explore the fine line that separates or meets art and design, as well as the use of typography in unconventional ways through illustration. I'm currently searching for the right opportunity to grow my career and gain in-house/ agency experience where I can learn from other skilled professionals in the field.
