"If you aren't in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?"
T.S. Eliot
I am focused, emotional, reliable, funny, stubborn and slightly workaholic and I enjoy observing and understanding the multidimensionality in every human being.
I'm a Portuguese copywriter with a sweet tooth for strategy and storytelling.
I've been working in advertising for the past 6 years, mainly in multinational agencies, like JWT and McCann-Erickson. While with these agencies, I created integrated campaigns aimed at different audiences and markets, pitched for new business and gained considerable client-facing experience.
