Felipe

I’m a senior designer and brand strategist with 10 years of experience shaping how brands look, feel and communicate.

What differentiates me is my global perspective. I grew up around the world, spending my formative years in Tokyo where I learned to observe deeply, listen carefully and communicate across cultures.

This international experience enables me to bring empathy and understanding to every engagement, so that I can create design solutions that satisfy the brief and feel true to the client.

My curiosity about different cultures led me to create TripGood, an art and philosophy shop built around questions of what it means to live well.

Strategy first — I start with understanding your audience and goals before touching a single pixel.

Systems thinking — everything I design is built to scale across print, digital, events, and beyond.

Collaboration — good design is problem solving together, not presenting solutions in isolation.
