I'm driven BY A TRUE PASSION FOR CONNECTING BRANDS WITH PEOPLE

THROUGH content, TECHNOLOGY, AND STORYTELLING.

Hey there, I'm Dani Xavier, a Team Leader who blends creativity with strategy and a dash of Brazilian soul! With 17 years in the game, I use technology, data, and strategic insights to craft stories and solutions that resonate globally. I'm all about creating work that's not just innovative but genuinely connects with people.

Gratitude and Teamwork: Every project and accolade along my journey is a shared success with the incredible teams and minds I've had the privilege to collaborate with. From Cannes to Clio Sports, it's been a collective ride of creativity and passion.

Let's Connect: Got a project or idea in mind? Drop me a message or email. I'm always up for exploring new creative frontiers and adding a sprinkle of fun to our next big adventure.
