Nice to meet you

I’m Daniel Portuga and here is the place that you can know everything about me.

To be honest, I love bringing ideas to life, make smiles everywhere and share all experiences. So, let’s smile together!

Portuga

The Smiles Hunter

Sublinhado Branco SÃO PAULO  -  LONDON  -  SINGAPORE  -  NEW YORK

Portuga, a nickname symbolizing Portuguese blood, brought me my father's inheritance - to be a fighter and a hunter for life. Daniel, a Brazilian soul, with swag, humor and an expert in making people laugh (yes, that's my mum's side). I am a result of this mixture, accumulating experience from all over the world. Since 1998 working with Digital, Design and Advertising, more than 125 clients in 19 markets. Born in São Paulo, lived in London and Singapore, based in New York. I'm a US green card holder and definitely a citizen of the world. I have an unrestricted passion for what I do and that's a story I love to tell.

Creative Direction 360º, focused on digital experiences, concept, campaigns, art direction, UX, social media, and of course, business development. Btw, I’m a hard worker, a team motivator, a serial pitcher, a happy-client-maker. Whatever it takes to bring ideas to life. In this journey I won couple awards, maybe 85 and many friends, great friends. Social Media Professor in Digital Marketing MA, KeyNote speaker in Pixel Show, one of the biggest design events in Latin America. Juror at Lisbon International Advertising Festival, CSSDA, Lusos and Columnists Awards. Work displayed at the Modern Art Gallery in Slovakia. In addition, over 60 articles and interviews across the globe.

The hours are long, the work is hard but the smiles are plenty. So, today I keep the same boyish passion but with more experience and something that never changes: the will and endless ability to continue sharing smiles. Maybe one day we meet to have a drink and put the world to rights or to work together. We'll probably laugh a lot. And then certainly, I will call you: friend. :)

99% of happiness is your Responsibility

OK, 1% IS ABOUT BEING LUCKY

Get an Umbrella

Say Sorry and Thanks

THOSE WORDS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD

Move to other countries, change lovers and hairstyles

BUT KEEP YOUR DREAMS, FOREVER

Music is the connection of the Soul

DEFINITELY, SOMETIMES YOU WEAR YOUR HEADPHONES ON MUTE

Sometimes, pee out of the Toilet

PLEASE, CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF.
