Design Director at Pinterest
Portuguese designer in Silicon Valley.
🤩I'm fascinated by how people perceive and interact with the world around them, so I'm very fortunate to spend my days creating ways for them to do so!
💼 In the past I have worked in advertising, production, teaching, product design and strategy - with partners such as Google, Nike, Adidas, Red Bull Music Academy, Abbey Road Studios, Strava, Hublot, Diesel and many others..
📌 Currently I'm a Design Director @ Pinterest - helping people find inspiration, to build the life they love.
“I feel blessed to have Gui as a mentor. He is great at providing feedback that is relevant, digestible and actionable. We've only chatted a handful of times, but I always come away with a treasure trove of thought nuggets after our conversations. He's extremely easy to talk to and very generous with his attention. Thanks Gui!”
“Gui has gone above and beyond anything I expected from a mentor. His portfolio review, career advice, and general design counsel are more than I could expect. I can't thank him enough for his time and interest in my work/career.”
“Gui is an amazing mentor! Warm, encouraging, and easy to talk to—he also has the best insights while providing actionable feedback. I have been chatting with him for about a month, and he always finds time to share resources and advice between our sessions. I feel so lucky to have his mentorship to help me succeed in the industry. I can’t thank him enough!! 100% recommend!”
