Pleased to meet you
I’m a User Experience Designer based in London, and I believe that Design is all about coming together to solve human problems.
I’ve been here for a few years now, but I’m originally from Portugal. This means my accent might change from British to Canadian or American at a moment’s notice, which is a lot of fun.
I enjoy reading comic books and playing Dungeons and Dragons, like the nerd I am. I am also almost always up for a pint and a chat down the pub.

What others say about me
Goncalo is a talented designer who has been using his skills to create a coherence between our application and transformed a complex application to an intuitive one.
Beside his experience in UI/UX he is also an experienced UI developer who knows Javascript and AngularJS quite well. He is also able to adapt to the environment has he learnt in few weeks how to implement his design into a WPF application using XAML.
In addition Goncalo has a great personality and is a interesting person.
I am happy I had a pleasure to work with Goncalo. He is the person with very strong opinion, UI designer with very good web development skills.
The things I like most about Goncalo is that he always tries to see things in not standard ways which leads to great and unique results.
I also admire Goncalo because he’s not afraid of trying new technologies which often leads whole team into acquiring new knowledge and skills.
