I'm social media designer and branding creative with a background in digital marketing. I help brands create content and visuals that don’t just look good, but actually connect with people and strengthen their online presence. I work mainly with: • Social media design (posts, carousels, reels covers) • Brand identity (logos and visual systems) I focus on creating work that feels intentional, modern, and aligned with each brand’s personality, avoiding generic solutions and template-based design. I also offer English ↔ Portuguese (PT) translations adapted naturally to the target audience. If you're looking for someone creative, reliable, and easy to collaborate with, I’d love to work together.

⚡ Fast turnaround: first draft in your inbox within 24 hours. 🎨 12+ years as a graphic designer, 570+ brands across 20+ countries, 15,000+ banners and designs delivered. 🧩 I'm a graphic designer, illustrator, web designer, video editor, social media manager and social media content creator in one package — a content creator who understands how ads perform, not just how they look, with a virtual assistant level of reliability on every reply. 12+ years of graphic design experience means I've seen almost every brief a client can throw at a graphic designer — this is graphic design built for growth, not graphic design for its own sake. As a social media manager on top of being a graphic designer, I plan the content once it's designed, so nothing sits waiting to be posted. 📈 Banner ads & advertising As a graphic designer my day starts with banner ad design, since that's where clients feel pain first. Ecommerce brands hire me for banner ad design and advertising design that lifts CTR above industry average, and that banner ad design language flows into social media design, social media imagery and social media content across Meta, Google Ads and LinkedIn. I've delivered banner ad design for 570+ clients — it's the most requested service in my graphic design practice — that's graphic design doing real commercial work, and social media content plus advertising design now drive most of my graphic design work. A single banner ad design brief often grows into a full social media design and social media imagery package within weeks, and as a social media content creator I build every asset ready to post. 🎯 Branding & logo design Logo design and branding sit underneath all of that. When a startup needs branding that builds trust fast, I start with logo design, then extend the branding into a full system so every banner ad design, flyer design and brochure design shares one look. Good branding means print design, layout and brochure design reinforce the same logo design choices, which is what clients really pay a graphic designer for, and it's graphic design that compounds instead of resetting for every project. Strong branding and logo design also make future banner ad design faster. 🖨️ Print, layout & presentations As a graphic designer I also build pitch decks for SaaS founders, and give agencies overflow illustration and photo editing capacity, plus print design, flyer design and brochure design for trade shows. Print design here often means packaging and stationery alongside brochure design and flyer design, with layout tying a forty-page report together as cleanly as one flyer design. Photo editing and illustration feed this print design work, since raw photos rarely arrive ready for brochure design, and Adobe Photoshop handles most of that photo editing. 💻 Web design & illustration As a web designer, web design and graphic design sit side by side in my process, since graphic design and web design overlap constantly at every stage. I build Figma prototypes, hand off WordPress-ready web design layouts, and treat infographic work as its own craft, since one strong infographic can beat ten banner ad design variations. A second infographic often gets built purely for social media design. Illustration work — custom characters or icon systems — folds into the same social media design and social media imagery requests, and a dedicated illustrator keeps that illustration original. When a client's team needs quick self-edits, I also build simple Canva templates alongside the Figma and WordPress builds, so the system holds up in Canva too. 🎬 Video & motion As a video editor I handle Adobe After Effects motion graphics and short ads, and every video editor project gets cut down into social media content for reuse. As an illustrator I draw custom illustration from scratch instead of pulling stock, because a good graphic designer thinks about performance first, and one who only edits templates can't compete with one who draws — hiring the right graphic designer saves time and budget. My toolkit runs through Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, Figma and Canva for graphic design and web design alike. Adobe Photoshop shapes most logo design mockups before Adobe Illustrator takes over, and Adobe Illustrator holds most banner ad design and advertising design source files. 🏆 The numbers Ask any past client and they'll tell you the same thing about me as a graphic designer. Clients return because the numbers hold: 12+ years of graphic design experience, 570+ brands across 20+ countries, 15,000+ creatives delivered, 200+ pitch decks completed, first concept within 24 hours, unlimited revisions on hourly work — plus a virtual assistant level of responsiveness as your graphic designer, illustrator, web designer, video editor and social media manager, every single time.

100% Job Success Score, with a roster of UK and US clients across healthcare, legal, property management, retail and wellness. I run social media for service businesses that need enquiries, not engagement graphs. Most service businesses post and hope something sticks. That is not a strategy, it is guesswork. Instagram and Facebook only become reliable business tools when there's a system behind them. The right content pillars, a consistent rhythm, and a clear line between what gets posted and what drives bookings. Without that, you are staying active for the sake of it. I'm a social media manager that's built for service based businesses where the goal isn't vanity metrics but real marketing based around human and buyer psychology. What that looks like in practice: 1. Content strategy built around your buyer, not a generic calendar 2. Reels, carousels and static content produced end to end 3. Account management, scheduling and community engagement 4. Monthly reporting on intent signals like profile visits, link clicks and enquiries Before this I spent nearly 7 years selling high end furniture. That's where the approach comes from. I understood what makes someone commit to a considered purchase long before I understood what makes a post perform, and most social media managers have it the other way around. They optimise for reach. I optimise for the decision your buyer is actually making. If your social media should be bringing in more enquiries than it currently does, send me your industry and what you're posting now, and I'll tell you what I'd change first.
