Igor Thiago de Araujo Bezerra 🏳️‍🌈

Curious and observer, I am determined to make a difference wherever I go. I was born in 1999 in the periferia of São Paulo, the son of a single mother and with a lot of stories to tell. As a child who loved to play at being a TV show host, I fell in love with art, music, and theater. This is how I discovered the Projeto Juntos, a social initiative that took away my shyness and opened a path of opportunities for me. With a bachelor's degree in Advertising with a 100% scholarship from Mackenzie, I consider myself a communicator: able to move between different conversations, with pertinent thoughts and a young and up-to-date worldview. In 2019, I had the opportunity to join Publicis Brasil as a media intern serving a global client, but it only took a few months for the annoyance to arise and make me change areas. My incessant curiosity generated my interest to get to know the planning and strategy area, where I work today. Learning every day to have an analytical eye without losing my creative side. With 6 years of experience, I had the opportunity to study brands, audiences, trends, and different subjects that permeate the food, pharmaceutical, automotive, alcoholic beverage, and technology sectors. I am an activist for the LGBTQIA+ cause, a great debater on social and income justice, and embedded in the anti-racist fight. My goal through communication is to write stories for those who could not write their own.
