Lisbon
I have spent 30+ years in strategy, brand, service and Product Design, and what still moves me is helping people and organisations make better decisions through Design.
I founded Moshi Moshi in 2001, taught at several universities, and led IxDF Portugal in growing a local design community.
I am a PhD candidate exploring the coherence of corporate identity in AI-mediated systems.
I value clear thinking, honest collaboration and mentoring. If you are learning UX or building something meaningful, reach out.
