About me

I'm a Senior Copywriter and Concept Creative from Lisbon, currently working remotely from Germany.

Over the years, I've worked at agencies like Jung von Matt, Grabarz & Partner, David+Martin, and Ogilvy Berlin. Now I’m part of the creative agency FunnyHow in my home country.

I’ve had the chance to develop international campaigns for brands like Opel, Amazon Prime Video, Porsche, Audi, Burger King, Coca-Cola and Uber. My work has been recognized at D&AD, Clios, Webbys, The One Show, NY Advertising Festival, and ADCE, amongst others.

I have a thing for minimalism.
I believe the best creative work is simple, yet powerful; straightforward yet bold.
