As you can see in my résumé I graduated with a degree in
Industrial Design in 2002 and among other experiences I ran a design
company in Brazil from 2004 until 2011, before coming to live in France.
I have experience with all stages of the software development lifecycle,
from the preliminary research until product release: ethnographic research, task analysis,
benchmarks, paper prototyping, interaction design, interface guidelines, heuristic evaluation,
development of paper and computer based prototypes and user testing.
Here you can see some of the projects I have worked on: user interfaces, websites and other user experience projects.
