SIMõES

about.

I am a first-generation immigrant from Brazil who arrived in the U.S. in 2017. Shortly after, I joined Fidelity Investments, bringing with me a BA in Advertising and 15 years of design experience spanning digital, graphic, publishing, motion, photography, videomaking, and fashion.

Woman with color palette

in my current role, I lead multiple design efforts across teams, focusing on delivering meaningful and simplified financial experiences to our customers. While I am passionate about all things image, I align my visual expertise with strategic collaboration alongside business stakeholders to help shape product vision and drive value-focused solutions.

if you've ever met a designer, you've probably heard how oddly frustrating it can be to create a personal portfolio, so bear with me.
Out of all the corners of the vast interwebs, I'm glad you ended up here, and I appreciate you stopping by.
