About

As Creative Director at Apple I've had the pleasure to lead teams on a variety of successful campaigns and product launches. AirPods Pro 3, Mac mini and Vision Pro are one of the most recent worth mentioning. Additionally, I created and developed a series of internal training and cultural initiatives with the intent of broadening our team's skillset, improving our culture and fostering innovation and creativity. Prior to being a CD at Apple, I had the opportunity to work as a multidisciplinary designer at various Branding and Advertising agencies in Sydney, Australia. Developing brand identity systems, packaging, environmental and motion deliverables for large-scale corporations, local small businesses and non profit organizations. Telstra, SKY, Tourism Australia, Darling Harbour, Sydney Opera House and Alzheimer's Australia are some of the highlights. Since completing my Bachelors Degree at Swinburne University of Technology, the projects I've been a part of have been featured, recognized and awarded by Vogue, Vanity Fair, D&AD, Cannes, Tokyo & NY Type Directors Club, Brand New, Graphis, AGDA and AIGA. I was born and raised in the vibrant culture of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. My father worked organizing the famous Carnaval parade in Rio. Being surrounded by musicians, stylists, costume designers, floats and dancers from a really young age had a massive impact on me and my work. The use of color and energy I try to inject in every project are all derived from those formative years in my childhood. Contact: joaomperes@gmail.com
