My professional journey spans from graphic design beginnings in Brazil to product design roles at Deel, Nansen, Defined.ai, and more recently, Kin. Along the way, I’ve built strong expertise in interaction design, design systems, and user-centered problem solving, grounded in my academic background in Marketing and Digital Strategies and Visual Communication from PUC-Rio.
 

In my recent work at Kin, I’ve grown especially passionate about designing AI-powered experiences. Working closely with conversational interfaces, memory systems, and AI-driven features has deepened my interest in how intelligent systems can support reflection, continuity, and trust (and how design plays a critical role in making AI understandable, transparent, and human).
 

Beyond my professional work, I enjoy exploring creative side projects that blend technology and storytelling. One of them is a personal project experimenting with AI-generated, personalized music for children, an ongoing exploration of how AI can be used in playful, meaningful, and emotionally resonant ways.
 

I'm a native Portuguese speaker, fluent in English, and conversational in Spanish, and my multicultural background continues to shape how I approach design.

 

Outside of work, I’m passionate about photography, illustration, and writing, often bringing these creative practices into my design process.
