OPA!
My name is Thiago Ferreira, I'm Brazilian, I'm 29 years old and I'm currently an art director at GALERIA. Previously I worked at DAVID, Heads Propaganda and Mirum. I believe in ideas that come from true insights and turn into a popular conversation. I've been trying to do this kind of work for brands such as McDonald's, Burger King, Coca-Cola, ABInBev, Toyota, Tang, Magalu (the largest retail chain in Brazil), among others.
My work has been recognized in some festivals such as OneShow, Brazilian Creative Club, El Ojo de Iberoamerica, Wave Festival and I got some shortlists in Cannes.
I was born in a small town of 20k inhabitants in southern Brazil called Antonina. If you ever go there, be sure to try our typical dish, Barreado. Go to the Buganvil Restaurant and say it was Thiago's recommendation, Albertinho's son, from the car wash. You will receive a 10% discount and also some banana candies, a typical candy of the city and the best in the south of the world.
