Hi, my name is Jean Valencia. I am a graphic designer currently living in Gião, Vila do Conde. I work across print and digital, from concept to final artwork, and follow each project through until it reaches the street, the shop window or the screen.

I have worked for communication agencies, print shops, web marketing and real estate. In recent years I have been working in the aesthetics, wellness and professional hair care sectors, for brands such as Alfaparf Milano Professional, Yellow Professional, Germaine de Capuccini®, Toskani®, LPG®, Indiba® and Storz Medical.

Between 2017 and 2021 I led the marketing and communication department of a construction and real estate development company, with a team in Portugal and Brazil. That experience gave me business vision, method and coordination skills.
