Hi,
I'm Manu
I'm Manu
I'm an experienced designer and leader based in Recife, PE, Brazil, with a rich background in creating innovative solutions, improving processes, and leading teams to success.
I've worked with major companies like Samsung and Lenovo, focusing on user-centered design that drives business results.
I excel at empowering teams and am open to full-time opportunities or partnerships to deliver impactful experiences. Let's connect!
Selected work that showcase my leadership, product design and management capabilities.
Some of the amazing clients that I had the opportunity to work for in my time at Ogilvy, C.E.S.A.R and Thoughtworks.
I started to work in Brazil's early internet years, witnessing the industry grow and mature while I developed myself as a designer. The many roles I played as a copywriter, web designer and information architect have forged my generalist background.
In the following years, I specialized in UX/UI and Product Design. My strongest areas of expertise are interface and interaction design, though I can successfully navigate other areas such as visual, research and usability, as well as product strategy and management.
My experience and strategic vision have led me to the leadership path. I find great joy in guiding and mentoring fellow designers, while keeping myself connected to the craft working in close collaboration with my teams to deliver the best and most valuable experiences.
