Testimonials
It would be easy to simply say that Claudio Is one of the most talented people I've come across in my long career, but talent comes in many forms. Having worked closely with him years ago in advertising in a mostly conceptual creative capacity, I'm amazed at how that talent has blossomed so successfully in so many endeavors. It must be attributed to Claudio's unbridled passion for everything he undertakes, and his intellectual capacity to adapt and learn, and yet one more talent to raise the bar each time he puts his newfound abilities to work. Claudio is tireless. His tenacity to excel in every aspect of our business is what has made him such a success in advertising, from Brand Work to Direct Marketing to Digital and Social Media. His roots may be in Art Direction + Graphic Design, but he has proven himself as a UX designer, as well as an impressive photographer and movie maker. The best creatives are also strategists, and Claudio's work is always thoughtful, practical, and rings true with the consumer target. He understands what makes people tick, and what makes Brands connect. Claudio is a leader, respected by his colleagues and teams alike. Claudio is indeed a 360° talent.

”I had an opportunity to work with Claudio Rangel on two different occasions. In both situations, Claudio personally handled the meetings and eventual issues himself which for me shows a high level of commitment and interest in making the client satisfied. I was impressed by his level of creativity, technical knowledge, and ability to think outside-the-box. A very solid professional who I recommend to anyone who needs an experienced high caliber professional.”
– João Geraldo Ferreira - Former CEO of GE Latin America
Claudio was my Creative Director during a formative time in my career. I was ready for more challenges and responsibilities, but unsure how to ask for them. He identified that ambition, involved me in increasingly complex and business-critical projects, and then trusted me to do a good job. I loved watching him work with our team. He knew when to step in with direction and encouragement when to coach and critique when to get out of our way. As I move into higher leadership roles, I take a lot of inspiration from Claudio’s style of creative direction. I remember his ability to be confident and decisive when giving feedback, while not stressing anyone out. And I find myself channeling his genuine enthusiasm for the work and for life. That outlook has allowed me to keep my mind open and work to create the right environment for my teams.
