ABOUT
Plinio, born and raised in Brazil, has been fascinated with communication from a young age. He won a design contest in his hometown and earned a one-year internship with one of the best-regarded local advertising agencies. Later, he attained a bachelor's degree in Marketing & Advertising.

During the latter, he also spent a semester in Paris at Dauphine University.
