The role of the designer is that of a good, thoughtful host anticipating the needs of his guests.

Charles Eames

I am a designer with 5+ years of experience. I have designed for companies, for myself, for other people. I have designed with Figma, with code, with my bare hands and with very weird materials during my Graphic Design degree.

Most of my professional experience has been designing software for credit card machines, at Stone. You probably have a lot of questions about what that means — don’t be afraid to ask, I enjoy talking about it.

More than a designer, I am a human: a human who rides motorcycles, models for friends’ brands and gets paid in tattoos, desperately hopes to get a Pantone shade named after her someday, and absolutely treasures her girlfriend, Jade.

All work shown is my own unless stated otherwise.

Graphic Design thesis · UEMG

In Service of Museums

A service design framework for museum user experience: what the visit asks of a visitor before, during and after the room, and where the institution keeps dropping its half of the exchange. Published as a site rather than a PDF, so the research reads the way it argues things should be read.
