I'm a Brasilian Industrial Designer, furniture. Biodesign researcher, Design Explorer. I went through design to create furniture... But I realized that design is much more than another beautiful chair. I played in many roles, as photographer, furniture designer, a bio-material lab creating living objects, promoting events, and Artificial Intelligence design. I also play roles at Dungeons & Dragons.
