Hi, I'm Paulo as you might have noticed, I've been working with art direction for more than 17 years, 14 of these in advertising agencies from New York, Miami, Los Angeles, São Paulo and Rio Preto - my home town in the country side of São Paulo, Brazil - developing campaigns for some of the world's most iconic brands like Google, Burger King, Vans, Call Of Duty, Michelob Ultra, Coca-Cola, Faber-Castell, Popeyes, Nestlé among others.
Currently I'm at Mother NY and have past experiences at GUT Miami LA & SP, DAVID, BBH Brazil, Publicis and Ogilvy. I also had the honor to be recognized in global advertising festivals including a Grand Prix at Cannes Lions, a Black Pencil at D&AD, Best Of Discipline at the One Show and at the Art Directors Club, Clios, El Ojo Iberoamerica and São Paulo Creative Club and more.
Had the pleasure to work as mentor at M.AD School São Paulo and Miami and was a lucky one by having the opportunity to judge some of the Ad Shows that inspires me like The AICP and the New York Festivals, CCSP in Brazil among others.
