About Victor Afonso

I\'m a copywriter and creative director with more than 20 years of experience in advertising, working for brands in the US, Latin America, Europe, and Africa. After almost two decades on the consumer side, I transitioned to healthcare advertising in 2020. In the past 5 years, I\'ve had the chance to win awards, including a Cannes Lions Grand Prix and two Yellow Pencils at the D & AD, to help the agency win new businesses and to create work for some of the world\'s largest pharma brands, including Pfizer, Bayer, Lilly and Johnson & Johnson.See my work at
