About me

Hello,
I'm Wanslez Quaresma, a Brazilian Senior Creative, Art Director currently soaking up the vibes in Germany. I'm a linguistic multitasker, juggling five languages while having had the pleasure of living and working in five fantastic countries – Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Italy, Russia, and the current German adventure. I've worked with renowned advertising companies like Africa Agency in Brazil, Saatchi&Saatchi Italy, Memac Ogilvy Jeddah, Y&R Dubai, Possible Moscow and Scholz&Friends Germany.
My work has been award in many International advertising awards, Cannes Lions, Epica Awards, OneShow, Clio Awards, even as a Permanent exhibition on New York Poster Museum..
In addition to my globe-trotting adventures, I've been busy shaping the future with two Edtechs, Skillbox.ru and Mentorama.com.br in Brazil. My playground includes developing brand communications for social events and new courses, and forming partnerships in Brazil for mentor programs. I fall in love with this task.
What keeps my creative juices flowing? The love for the craft, the thrill of the process, the birth of ideas, and the joy of working with technology and information. Oh, and did I mention my love saunas?
You can catch a glimpse of my wisdom on Instagram, where I share tips gathered from my journey and insights from the amazing creative minds who've shaped my path. Plus, I moonlight as a mentor for Mentorama Creative and Tech School in Brazil. Check us out at www.mentorama.com.br.
If you fancy my work, let's chat more. If not, well, no hard feelings – we'll just part ways with a virtual shrug. :-(
Follow my adventures on Instagram @wanslezquaresma, and let the creative journey continue!
I honed my skills at agencies like Scholz&Friends Germany, Africa agency in Brazil, Saatchi&Saatchi Italy, Y&R Dubai, Memac Ogilvy, guided by the wisdom of stellar Creative Directors and friends:

Luca Pannese & Luca Lorenzini from Small Agency NY
Attila Nyeky from DDB Barcelona
Sergio Gordilho from Africa agency in Brazil
Looking forward to the next chapter, and hoping it includes you!
