CEO, Grupo Ella

Design, strategy and technology integrated, not layered.

Strategic and digital designer specialising in branding, UX/UI, digital products and communication.

For 17 years, I have turned complexity into clarity through branding, digital products, automation and communication. This is the personal portfolio behind Grupo Ella.

Senior vision, from concept to execution

Strategy, design and technology connected to create solutions that build trust, consistency and results.

Manifesto
Interfaces are only the surface. What I truly build is clarity: systems, logic and direction that help brands and businesses scale.

My background brings together art direction, brand building and digital experiences, always close to implementation, from problem to strategy and from interface to system.

DAGAT Smart

Love Together Brasil

Institutional presentation for a nonprofit

Presentation direction for a social organisation, created to turn impact data into a compelling narrative. It is the difference between showing a spreadsheet and showing real transformation. The material was designed to support fundraising and institutional credibility with donors and partners.

DOA+ donation landing page

Donation page created during my time at DOARE, included as a direct example of my experience in the nonprofit sector. The goal was to connect social causes with donors through clarity, trust and a frictionless conversion path, from the first click to the completed donation.

How I work

Strategy before aesthetics. Systems before isolated assets.

01

Understand

I map the context, people, constraints, goals and friction points. Before designing, I need to understand the problem that truly deserves to be solved.

02

Structure

I organise journeys, information, priorities, messages and flows. I turn complexity into a logic the team can see, discuss and build.

03

Design

I create interfaces and visual systems with consistency, intention and personality, without separating functional experience from brand expression.

04

Connect

I bring design closer to implementation, considering content, technology, automation, CRM, integrations and operational continuity.

Experience

A career built across visual design, digital products and strategy.
