As a Creative Director my role is to understand the overall picture, to be updated, to get inspired and to inspire, go further and make a diference, not only on the company results but also in the intern creative process.
Working as an Art/Creative Director not only on final pieces of communication, but on product design, on the creative process, managing teams of designers, and connecting the design team with other sectors of the companies.
Building my career as a graphic designer I have been acquiring a solid professional experience in all areas of GRAPHIC/COMMUNICATION DESIGN. Starting on development of graphic pieces, going through editorial/pagination and book design, until final arts, pre-production and production monitoring. I developed knowledge on the elaboration of key visuals, stationary, brand manuals, publicity pieces, creation of brochures, flyers, magazines, books, reports, stamps, infographics, exhibitions, webdesign, and more. Lately I have been working as an Art/Creative Director not only on final pieces of communication, but on product design, on the creative process, managing teams of designers, and connecting the design team with other sectors of the companies.
