Hi! I'm
André Casado
Marketing Strategist, Professor and Senior Advisor
I was born in Lisbon, Portugal, in the 80s and grew up with a wide range of interests, exploring various sports and pursuing different educational paths. My interest in psychology led me to a career in marketing and communication strategy, where I now serve as the founder and CEO of a specialized marketing consultancy.
My background in psychology provides a unique perspective that contributes to a business’s success.
Being an academic professor also allows me to share my knowledge, contribute to the academic community, and stay updated on what the sciences know about marketing, communication, and business.
Marketing Strategist, From Lisbon.
When it comes to marketing strategy, I believe in embracing the big picture while also paying attention to the nitty-gritty details. I find joy in delving into specifics as well as observing broader patterns and phenomena.
