ABOUT

Let's build something great, together.

I'm Carlos Custódio, a technology professional with experience since 2009, focused on building high-quality digital solutions driven by user experience and results. I began my career as a Graphic Designer, creating print materials for local companies. This early stage helped me develop a strong foundation in visual design, typography, composition, and attention to detail — skills that still shape my work today. In 2011, I transitioned into Web Design, maintaining the same quality standards from print design while expanding into the digital space. During this period, I worked on websites, digital portals, and social media projects, combining aesthetics with functionality. From 2012 onward, I started working as a Freelancer, collaborating with companies in Brazil and internationally, including the United States, Portugal, Australia, and Canada. This global experience broadened my perspective on digital products, workflows, and cross-cultural collaboration, while pushing me to continuously improve through courses and professional certifications. In 2017, I moved into a UI Designer role, focusing on solving real user problems through interface design. This naturally led me to UX, where I found my long-term professional path — designing experiences that are intuitive, efficient, and user-centered. Currently, I work as a UX/UI Designer and Product Designer, with over 9 years of experience in Product Design, continuously contributing to better User Experiences by delivering more strategic, intuitive, and high-quality digital products.
