I already enjoyed drawing, so I quickly began exploring Paint Brush. A few years later, I started creating compositions in Photoshop to share with my friends and family. Once we got an internet connection, I discovered FrontPage, Dreamweaver, and Flash. I realized I could use code to create things I loved and share them with the world. Since then, I've never stopped exploring the intersection of design and code. **What does your desktop/home screen look like?** ![Danilo's desktop](https://cdn.resend.com/posts/welcoming-danilo-campos-1.jpg) **Why are you at Resend?** I've been following Resend for a while and have always admired the craft and attention to detail in every aspect of the product and branding. I couldn't be more excited to join the team, collaborating with people I admire to ship amazing things together. **Where do you find #inspiration?** I'm always looking for inspiration from other designers and studios, I even built my own [repository](https://re-mind.danilocampos.cc) to save favorites. I also find references in the real world: music, street culture, books, and architecture. **Favorite tool?** Figma is my favorite tool. It's incredible how easy it makes collaboration between designers, and I use it every day for different purposes. **Favorite hotkey?** `Command + N`: Sometimes the blank page is scary, but it is also an opportunity to create something new. **Favorite place to visit?** I love visiting cafés where I can sit and enjoy my coffee with my wife and our dog, or with friends. ![Isa and our dog, Alice, at Three Marks Coffee in Barcelona](https://cdn.resend.com/posts/welcoming-danilo-campos-3.jpg) **Advice for ambitious designers?** Master the fundamentals and collaborate with people you admire and can learn from.
