Raquel brings over 15 years of experience in advertising and film production in Brazil. In New Zealand, she focused on community building and creative communication. Now, she joins Fernanda’s team, blending empathy, strategy and connection in real estate.

With more than 15 years in the advertising and film production industry in São Paulo, Brazil, I built a strong foundation in communication, leadership, and client relationships while working with local and global brands and creative teams, ultimately at Paranoid BR Films.After moving to New Zealand, I expanded my experience into account management at Q Brand Builders, navigating the fast-paced space between creative teams and clients. There, I helped develop digital marketing strategies and internal campaigns for clients, including SKOPE and Westgold.When I became a mother, my focus shifted toward community and connection. I trained as a breastfeeding peer counsellor and doula and began running monthly meetups for Brazilian and Latin mums. What started as a small circle has grown into

a group of more than 60 women, reminding me that genuine interest, trust, and authenticity are at the heart of meaningful relationships.Information, support, and encouragement guide everything I do both professionally and personally.Most recently I worked as Community and Marketing Manager at QbStudios where I combined creativity and management with strong people skills to bring ideas to life and welcome companies and teams such as Microsoft, Dancing Water Winery, Robert Walters, Wotton Kearney, Become Wealt,h and others into one of Christchurch’s most sought after workspaces.I am now excited to begin my journey in one of New Zealand’s most dynamic industries, driven by the belief that every home represents not just a property, but a story waiting to be lived.
