My name is Diego Tórgo and I’m a Brazilian-Portuguese Creative Director with 20 years in advertising, working across three continents. Along the way, I’ve built a name as someone who tells bold visual stories that stick with people. One of the coolest highlights? Helping FCB Lisbon snag Portugal’s first (and only) Grand Prix at Cannes Lions.
Currently, I’m VP Creative Director at Area 23/NY, leading The Refinery—a special unit focused on pushing creative boundaries in ideas, design, and craft. Making sure the agency’s best projects are as sharp as they can be.
My philosophy is pretty straightforward:
1. Get things done
2. Work smart
3. Don’t be a jerk
