I accompanied brands like Jardiland, Fred, Maru, Sonomind and more.

I’ve always loved solving problems.
Engineering studies taught me systems, rigor and logic.
But I kept questioning the premise.

Something was missing: the human variable.
The emotion, the culture, the identity.

I fell in love with branding because it let me keep my tools,
and use them in a field where sidesteps aren’t distractions,
they’re the breakthrough.
