Bio
Bárbara Fonseca
Cris and I worked together on two projects during the last years and I couldn't recommend her more. As a director and creative director, Cris gave me great creative guidance, whilst allowing space for my ideias to exist within the project making space for true collaboration. She is smart, resourceful, inventive and always looking for the more interesting solutions for the creative problems that come up during the projects. Cris is also super respectful of her colleagues and a major supporter of women in the industry, opening space for more people to join and enjoy the business and making it more diverse and inclusive. Thank you Cris and I hope we can work together again!

I’ve known Cris for a very long time and had the chance to work with her across several different occasions. Chris comes as a Swiss Army knife (in a good way) being able to showcase and perform across a vast skillset together with a lot of patience, willing to learn and kindness. I would definitely recco Cris to anyone and am looking forward to working together again.
BARNEY RICHARD
I had the pleasure of having Cris as part of my Directors roster over a period of two years. We pitched a few jobs and made one. Cris has a rather beautiful creative brain and has great ideas. Her multi-disciplinary skill set makes for very interesting work. She's super-collaborative, smart and a wonderful person. Give her a job.
