Originally born in Brazil, I currently live in Germany, where I work as VP of Design Strategy at SAP SuccessFactors. Working in the Information Technology industry since 1998, I've been a juror for several international design competitions. As an Information Design specialist, I served on the board of the Brazilian Society of Information Design and held several lecturing positions in various design programs around the world, including the Department of Design of Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (Brazil), École de Design Nantes Atlantique (France), Lasalle College (Mexico), and Raffles Design Institute at DongHua University (China).
