hi 👋🏼 I’m Inês, a marketeer 🇪🇺 turned web developer, into creativity through technology.
Welcome to my digital home.
Design, (social) entrepreneurship, art, health, climate, tech and creative expression via tech. Some topics I’m exploring.

__the what where
Currently, studying Interactive Telecommunications at NYU and working as a software developer at Unbabel. Previously on a sabbatical and before that, I was a Marketing Officer for the European Investment Fund.
I’ve lived in Luxembourg, Montréal, Oslo, Amsterdam, Thailand, Lisbon and now, New York City.
__the creative
I’m working on building my Life Resumé as much as my creative one.
I enjoy creating, whether it’s websites, new digital designs or swimwear.
__the developer
One of my first building experiences was my own startup for youth employment, helping students experiment with their career path: 🏄🏻♀️ Surf the Job in the Forward Pre-Acceleration Program.
Recently, since I’ve learnt how to code, I built 🪩 Gather Go. Now working on React & Three JS projects like 📷 Memory Lab and a 💼 new version of this portfolio.
Some of the experiences that shaped me
__in software development
At Unbabel, developing software so that individuals who have lost their voice due to illness can build an AI persona.
__in European Union x finance x creative work
Worked for 2 years at the European Investment Fund in Luxembourg, lately as a Marketing Officer.
_in full stack web development
Completed an intensive coding bootcamp learning Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript ES6, SQL, git, GitHub, Heroku and built Gather Go.
__teaching english in Thailand
Completely immersed in the Thai culture and living with a local family, I taught English classes to 150 students aged 3 to 14 years old in an Islamic and Buddhist school. Got to participate in Buddhist rituals and local festivities.
__in retail
Learned what goes into selling Nespresso coffee at Nestlé.
__living in an eco-community
Volunteered as a camp counselor and later, as a Marketing advisor at Terragon Nature Labs.
__in entrepreneurship and no-code building
In the Forward Pre-Acceleration Program, I created Surf the Job, on a mission to help students understand the job market and companies keep talent for longer.
_facilitating a storytelling workshop
Traveled to Belgium to deliver a storytelling and comms workshop for 24 people in the JEF Training Days 2022, based on what I’ve learned in the creator economy and my last 2 years in EU comms.
