The challenge of the designer is to bring the vision of the client into focus, while creating new perspectives in the process. The nature and language of design and advertising are rapidly changing with technology. New media drives how, where and what we see.
Whether producing corporate collateral material or advertising for a rising artist, I'm constantly striving to mirror that evolution visually, producing work that points to the future while maintaining subtle classic design elements.

It has always been important to me to continue to make analog work alongside my digital graphic design. I tend to work in illustration or collage, or a mixture of the two. Much of the work comes out spontaneously, tapping into the subconscious. Bold colors and line work are prominently featured. The line work in particular has a meditative effect during creation.

Pancakebreaks.com was a website dedicated to music. The site featured an online vintage record store curated with records hand selected by me. Brazilian music was a main focus, but many genres were included, which reflected my interests, as well as what I would play out as a DJ.
The site also functioned as a portal for my musical services. DJ bookings, music curation, soundtracks and specialized mixes could all be contracted through the site.
