Oi, tudo bem?

Profile

My name is Carla, I grew up in sunny Rio de Janeiro, was shaped by the fast-paced creativity of São Paulo, inspired by the culture of New York and now I bring all those experiences to the Florida sun.

I'm a graphic designer with 10+ years in social media and content creation who believes design is way more than “making things pretty”, it’s about sparking conversations and moving people.
