Nice to meet you ✦
A designer with
many tabs open.
I'm Bia — a Brazilian Senior Multimedia Designer based in Dublin. For 10+ years, I've moved between graphic design, motion, 3D, WordPress and character-led campaigns, always looking for the idea that makes everything click.
Before that, I taught computer graphics in Brazil. It still shapes how I work: curious, hands-on and always trying to make a complicated thing feel beautifully clear.
