About me

As a Portuguese architect who had some subjects from the graduation in Design and Multimedia during the course and a big passion for creative illustration, I found that my talent goes beyond the conventional architecture. After the graduation, as it is proved in my Curriculum Vitae with Portfolio, I worked in multiple projects such as Web Design, T-shirt design, Flyers, posters and brochures design, 2d and 3d animation, powerpoint presentations, drawing, illustration and comics conception that shows my versatility and passion for distinct kinds of art and design work.

Apart from my practical experience, I also highlight my participation as a presenter in various international conferences in the areas of comics and architecture, realized in English, Spanish and Portuguese Universities.
