André Kovadloff

About me

I’m André Kovadloff, a Creative Director with a background in art and graphic design and over 20 years of professional experience.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work at some incredible places, including Publicis, Dentsu, FCB, Newstyle, Tribal Worldwide, Africa, BFerraz, Bullet, and Youdare. My work has been recognized by major festivals and leading industry publications around the world.

Over the years, my role has evolved from creating the work myself to leading, mentoring, and helping other creatives be their best. That evolution has also taken me into creative education, mentoring talent and leading storytelling workshops at institutions such as RedHook and D&AD.

Beyond advertising, I’m a tech enthusiast with a genuine passion for music, gaming, animals, and people, interests that constantly influence the way I think, create, and connect with culture.

That curiosity also led me to create TioKill, my gaming channel, which gained international recognition after I recreated Chorão’s iconic skatepark in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2.

Let’s grab a coffee
