Hey there!
I'm Paulo, a Brazilian graphic designer with a Japanese twist, 20 years of experience under my belt, and a Google UX cert just to keep things spicy.
I've spent two decades honing my craft, though honestly,
I still approach every project like an overly curious kid.
And between us: isn't "design thinking" just a fancy industry buzzword for what we've been doing all along anyway?
Above all, I'm a firm believer in leading with respect and empathy. Especially for everyone who makes out daily grind a little easier.
The digital world is moving fast and is genuinely fun right now, and I'm just happy to be along for the ride.
Always down to chat about cool projects or grab a virtual coffee.
