Gus Lamounier is a creative interdisciplinary UX designer, with a background in both Graphic and Digital, who dreams of a world where technology adapts to users’ needs (and not the other way around). Experienced in balancing research and empirical foundations with creative thinking and new media. Obsessed with bridging the communication gap across disciplinary domains, and finding ways for people to share, collaborate, and transform ideas and knowledge.

About me

I have more than twelve years of experience in the digital market, creating cross-channel user experiences for brands like Google, Invesco, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Estado de Minas, and several San Pedro Valley startups.
I’m also a post-graduate in Interaction Design and teach User Experience and Prototyping for schools like Tera and Gama Academy, which has a new approach to digital skills education in Latin America.

I deliver inspiring projects focused on user experience, bridging the gap between tech and business, and always presenting solutions to problems with aesthetic and commercial results.

A passionate soccer fan, I don’t refuse a beer, a rock concert, and a good reading. Outside the office, I find time to be a social activist, an investor in cryptocurrencies, a cultural producer of independent rock concerts, and a local leader for the best IxDA chapter in the world, curating and sharing UX knowledge for new designers!

Currently living in Boston - MA, collaborating with an awesome team at Invesco.
