Hello! I'm Luiz Almeida, an art director and designer born and raised in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais.
I've worked at several local advertising agencies, and later at AKQA São Paulo and Coala Music. Currently, I work at Africa Creative DDB.

During this time, I've had the privilege of collaborating with amazing and creative people whom I admire. I've been involved in projects with major brands such as TikTok, Umbro, MESA and Coala Festival, as well as working with renowned artists from Brazilian popular music, such as Criolo, BK', Luccas Carlos and Tim Bernardes.

My creative journey is a reflection of my experiences, from the streets of my neighborhood to black music, from skateboarding to basketball, and it's constantly evolving.
