From São Luís, Maranhão to São Paulo. I’m Gabriel Moniz, a Brazilian creative, art director, and designer born in '99. I was raised on a unique diet of Bumba Meu Boi, gaming, sports, and Hip-Hop, mixed with entertainment and culture that tell stories. This eclectic 2000s energy didn’t just shape my childhood, but also my creative eye.
Today, I channel that background into my role as a Senior Creative | Designer at Nubank, crafting projects across multiple mediums. Along the way, I’ve been lucky enough to turn ideas into awards, including a Gold at the Young Lions Live Awards (2021) and a spot on the VOZES30 list by Papel & Caneta (2019).

I’m a firm believer in staying curious (cliché, but true). Whether it’s a global campaign or a personal project, I’m always learning. If you want to chat about design, culture, or just swap recommendations on good storytelling, my inbox is open. Seriously, don’t be shy.
