"I will always go further to reach ideas that use creativity to solve current problems, and generate business for me and the place where I'm working."
Hello! I'm Fernando Christo, no, I’m not related to Jesus. I’ve been working as a copywriter in advertising agencies for more than 20 years in different cities such as Curitiba, São Paulo, Lisbon, and Milan, for brands like HSBC, Kit Kat, Netflix, Microsoft, Google, Johnson & Johnson, Panasonic, BR Gas Stations, Shell Gas Station, Warner Bros, Mercado Livre, 3 Corações, OMO, CIF, Knorr, Movida, Rexona, Becel, Concha y Toro, Midea, Geru, Guaraná Antarctica, Electrolux, O Boticário, Amazon, Volkswagen, Livelo, Cerveza SOL, Lagunitas, Bradesco Seguros, Jhonnie Walker, Burguer King, Lays and many others.
More than that, I'm a social entrepreneur with some different creative social works that make me as proud as winning a Cannes Lion. I'm also a collaborator at RedHook School of creativity because I believe that experiences must be shared with the next generations.
