I began my career as a designer in the fashion industry after earning my Fashion Design degree. During this time, I gained diverse experience as a retoucher, layout designer, and creator of print ads for magazines, vehicle wraps, and billboards. I also worked as an illustrator, fabric printer, and filigree designer—conceptualizing and crafting intricate designs for laser-cutting machines.

However, I discovered my true passion lay in the digital world. This realization inspired me to dive deeper into the field and return to my studies, paving the way for a rewarding career in digital design and development.

I began exploring Computer Science as a special student, taking six subjects as part of a program designed for graduates to deepen their knowledge without formal admission. Inspired by what I learned, I pursued a master’s degree in mobile development. While I completed all the coursework, I had to relocate to another city before submitting my final project, so I did not receive the completion certificate.

In São Paulo, my new home, I embarked on a fresh academic journey by enrolling in a degree program in Software Development.

Later, my passion for understanding people and creating better digital experiences led me to pursue another master’s degree—this time in User Experience and Leadership, a field that resonates deeply with me.
