I asked some friends to define me in some words, they said: modern, adventurous, upright, resourceful, transparent and witty.

On my Instagram (@vinirusso) I defined me as a dreamer-handson-urbanoid-protester.

On my LinkedIn you will see what I do almost all my day time: developing new city systems. I was o-founder of movements to change electoral system, qualify elections, and a digital culture hub. Coordinator of a city councilman campaign to recycle politics, a government program crowdsourcing for a presidential candidate and a direct democracy experience in legislative. Founder of Nucleo Digital Lab inside Sao Paulo City Hall, a initiative of Government Digital Service that redesigned the city.
