About me
Joyful Portuguese soul living in Denmark since 2016!
I am currently working for Grundfos, in a Zite in-house agency.
I love to learn new software and new ways of doing things, especially when I know I'm optimising working processes.
I've always loved drawing since I remember myself. It has been through drawing that I've grown professionally and it's that passion that drives me as a creative. Everything I hear, I visualize; everything I don't understand, I try to make a drawing of it to better understand it.
If you have an idea or a project where you think I could help you, please reach out!!

Colleagues say...
Pedro Colaço
3D & Character Artist
MSc colleague at ISEC
Ana is a multi-talented designer/illustrator with whom I had the honour to study with. What mostly stands out in her is the commitment to the projects, versatility and attention to detail.
Additionally, I would consider Ana as an excellent collaborator to work with, as she is very dynamic and generous in team efforts. I would gladly work with her again in the future.
William Engqvist
Senior Designer & UX Lead
Colleague at Anthill Agency
Ana is one of the best junior designers I have had the pleasure to train and onboard. She is engaged and curious, never afraid to ask for advice or spar on a solution to a design or interaction challenge. She quickly understand a process or ‘best practice’ and rarely had to be told anything more than once. Ana has incredible illustration skills and an ability to create consistent visuals from a simple brief. In addition, her growing animation skills help bring life to her illustrations and the projects she’s involved in. I’ll give Ana my highest recommendation and guarantee she’ll bring value to any team.

She's an enthusiast and is always willing to learn.
