Art Director /
Multidisciplinary Designer
Brazilian, based in Lisbon, highly skilled in visual communication from print to digital. Hands-on in layout, motion design, expert in prompting with AI, and currently studying 3D modeling.
For the past six years, I have been an art director at the global agency, NY based, CUBOCX, specializing in post-advertising for social media, attending major global brands, working remotely and in person at agile sprints in different countries, mastering best practices for effective communication for this type of media.
Back in Brazil, I've started with graphic design, working for magazines and publishers, followed by advertisement and content agencies.
From 2020 to 2023, I had the opportunity to dedicate myself as an art director attending Spotify fully. During this time, I contributed to over twenty campaigns, working thought agile sprints at their headquarters in London and in New York on multiple occasions.
Apprentice tattooist /
Illustrator for fun
Dodói in Brazilian-Portuguese, my mother tongue, is how we say boo-boo. I'm very peculiar with picking names, and when I started tattooing I thought it would be good to have a striking identity, in order to be easily remembered. It worked. People who knew me after that only call me by Dodói. Once every tattoo is a boo-boo, but not all of them carries my essence: Radical. So, as a tattoo artist, I'm Dodói Radical since then.
I started studying and practicing tattoo one year before the pandemic, always as a hobby, attending my clients in my personal studio, at home. But, with the lockdown measures, as it wasn't possible to keep doing things that same way, I had to pause my activities. Meanwhile, I moved from São Paulo downtown to the shore, and my life slightly changed. So Dodói marks not only the tattoo exploration phase, but also a new lifestyle for me at that time, which impacted and inspired a lot of my work, being part of who I am. Below you may find some registers of this period and a sneak-peek tattoo portfolio of what I've made.
At the moment, I'm looking for opportunities to come back tattooing in Lisbon.
