Graphic designer for 9+ years, living in Vila Real, northern Portugal.
I like lists and long days with no-rush mornings.
I graduated in Communication Design at Faculdade de Belas-Artes da Universidade do Porto and did my Master’s thesis about Portuguese Graphic Design Collectors at Escola Superior de Arte e Design de Matosinhos.
In between, I was in Erasmus at ESAD Saint-Etiénne.
At the moment I am doing my Ph.D. in Development, Society, and Territories at UTAD, studying Creative Industries in low-density territories.
In addition to being a graphic designer, I have a company that provides human resources, logistics, and support to venues and projects of performing arts, Brisa d’Aplausos, which I run with three other partners.
Among projects, I organized ENED2013, founded and edited IP4mag, and the founded and directed Transa Cooperativa Cultural, for 5 years.
I'm a secretary at the Centro Cultural Regional de Vila Real, where I taught computer classes to elders. I'm also part of Associação Brincar, which develops activities and products that respect children's autonomy.
In 2020 I founded luscofia®, and I started promoting workshops, lectures, and online courses. I also started creating templates in Notion and tools for digital organization.
In 2023 I started Notion Consulting.
I’m still a graphic designer first :~)

A hobby I ought to come back to someday.
