I'm Leo, product designer crafting systems and bridging design with code.
Currently leading the Design System at Dell from Lisbon, Portugal.
I like to say my journey as a designer began with Lego, which I started playing when I was three years old, creating and solutioning with limited resources. By the age of 15, I began to make websites for small local businesses, and later on, encouraged by my older brothers, I pursued a degree in design while simultaneously landing my first job as a front-end developer. This hybrid path led me to work in roles that bridge design and development.
I have a deep passion for side projects, design, coding, typography, and film photography, and these are featured in my playground section. My personal and professional aspirations are united by a desire to create, ranging from art or simple tools to complex products that seamlessly blend technology and excellent user experience.
