Cleiton Avi
Brand designer in Rio do Sul, in the Alto Vale do Itajaí region of southern Brazil.

I have worked in design since 2012 and specialized in visual identity, with projects in Brazil and abroad.
My background comes from working across different areas of business. Beyond graphic design, I lived the reality of marketing, e-commerce and advertising agencies, learning in practice what makes a brand perform.
I was a Senior Graphic Designer at Rocketseat, the largest developer community in Latin America, where I was responsible for the brand redesign and created the identities of the company’s business units and events. I worked side by side with the Marketing and Performance teams.
Today I bring that experience to my studio, with the same strategic maturity I applied at one of the country’s biggest tech players. My work is helping founders who want to build unmistakable brands.
