Alex J. Ventpap

Lead Designer

Alex Jonatan Ventpap is a coffee lover/graphic designer for the Web and has been working with ImageX Media since January 2007. He received his Bachelors degree in Graphic Design in Brazil, where he was living until the beginning of 2008. To date, he has accumulated more than 7 years experience in Web Design and Motion Design.

Passionate about drawing since birth, it was only after 18 years old that he could really embrace the design field full time. He started working in the area of technic design (AutoCad and 3D Studio). During university he acquired skills working with Flash and Photoshop tools, which are currently his best virtual friends. Alex also worked as a Web Design Consultant for the Brazilian government, where he immersed himself in and learned all about Web 2.0 style.

For Alex, ImageX Media is still amazing: place, people, work and coffee! It’s a place where people are really important and problems are solved as a team.
