Gabriel Sotero

︎ About

I am a very passionate creative copywriter that also enjoys numbers and the financial world. Yeah, believe it or not, I really love studying the stock market and all kinds of financial investments.

I was born in the smallest state in Brazil – Sergipe – and in 2005 moved to São Paulo with a simple goal: to study creative copywriting at Miami Ad School. 13 years later, it’s fair to say I became a Paulistano (the São Paulo version of a New Yorker).

Over these 14 years in São Paulo, I've had the privilege of working with some amazing people at some of the greatest agencies in Brazil, such as Publicis, DDB, JWT and TBWA. I have also been lucky enough to see my work awarded in a number of advertising festivals, including 4 Cannes Lions (1 Gold, 2 Silver, 1 Bronze).

At the beginning of 2019, I started to write a new story at BETC/Havas as Creative Director for Citroën, Peugeot, Hershey's, JDE Coffee, and Olla Condoms.

When I am not trying to save the world whilst creating mind-blowingly never-imagined-before unparalleled ideas (sarcasm detected), I spend my time with my family, with my buddies, as well as studying financial investment, surfing, running, and lifting heavy glasses of good beer – and not-such-good beer, too.
