Andre Galhardo’s Summary

I've been working for 15 years as an Art Director in leading brazilian agencies and recently, also as a Creative Planner.

My objective is to create new kinds of campaigns, interaction platforms and experiences for brands.

Yesterday's solutions aren't fit for today's problems anymore, so we must help companies innovate "design thinking" for their businesses - embedding marketing into products.

Right- and left-brainers, let´s reinvent advertising.
