Hi! I'm a Brazilian Product Designer based in Florianรณpolis - Brazil.
Through couchsurfing and volunteering with my partner in a backpack trip abroad, I began to rethink my previous career. 6+ years in the audiovisual field and I decided to make a career change once back.
The book "Designing Your Life", by Bill Burnett, sparked a strong interest in me to explore the design world beyond moving pixels.
I fell in love with the experimentation mindset. It was when
I created a study plan with a low budget. It took me around $78 and 651 hours invested in studies and practices until I get my first UX opportunity in 2019.
It has been around 3+ years I'm in this field. Since then, I co-founded Vagas UX, have worked as a Product Designer (and Product Manager) for tech companies in Brazil and globally distributed.
I'm happy to share my experience with others and give support whenever needed.
It is all been a grand experiment, and I'm excited to keep learning and iterating.
What guides my decisions and behavior.
Necessity and enough even over desire
Straightforward instead of exaggeration or assumptions
Quality even over quantity
Curiosity instead of assumptions and rightness
Openness to possibilities instead of protecting what I've become
Wisdom even over knowledge
Diverse perspectives even over single stories
Be mindful even over new experiences
Hold to my values instead of pleasing others

3 years working fully remote for tech companies in Brazil and globally distributed.
