Oct 2009 - Jan 2022
Kiwi Studio was founded as a space for creation and innovation. Our projects are developed through experimentation with various visual techniques. Drawing upon our repertoire of projects, we employ a range of creative tools for both digital and analogue projects, using manual techniques such as woodcuts, collage and watercolor, acrylic and pastel painting.Since the company was founded, in addition to design deliverables, I was also responsible for overall business management, with relevant accomplishments: - Researched and implemented Google Drive and Toggl Track/Plan in 2015, enabling teams to work remotely while sharing files and managing projects- Financial management by identifying cost-saving measures (eg.: saved 30% of a budget for a project by reducing 4-color print to 2 colors)- Executed marketing and creative strategy to acquire new customers trough online advertising channels increasing number of clients on 40% YoY average- Client management relationship to understand their needs, present design concepts, and address feedback to ensure their satisfaction and maintaining long-term relationships (13 years providing services to SESC, a non-profit Brazilian private institution that makes available Education, Health, Culture and Recreational programs across the country) Show less
