Nice to have you here!

Welcome

Luiz Felipe
7+Years of experience

I grew up in São Paulo, spending weekends at my uncle's — a software developer who sparked my curiosity for tech. From anime-inspired sketches to a degree in Information Science at USP (2018), I learned early that creativity and information are inseparable.

20+Projects completed

In college, I co-founded the first student center in my program and built websites for the community. Today I am a Senior Product Designer at Mercado Pago, building a subscription platform used by thousands of clients.
