I was born in Brazil.
I donβt play football.
This is my football.
Iβve led teams of talented, curious, culture-hungry creatives β 10 or 15 at a time β in tech, hospitality, non-profit, and lifestyle.
My teams and I build brands not just with what clients ask for but with the ideas they didnβt know they needed. Because in the real world, brands arenβt just up against each other β theyβre up against the best stories, music, comedy, tech, adrenaline, art, community, and beauty in what people actually care about.
So we go toward the strange stuff. Weβd rather draw from lived experience than last yearβs award show winners. Sometimes we work from hotel lobbies and sidewalksβbecause the best ideas, like plants, donβt thrive under fluorescent office lighting. We ask better questions. We get curious. And we come back with something that might not be obvious, but connects. It just feels right. And when it lands, someone says, βI donβt know what this is yet, but I want in.β
We find interesting answers to brandsβ trickiest questions by going where the brief sometimes canβt.
