about me
I graduated from the Escola de Cinema Darcy Ribeiro (Brazil) in 2014. My directorial debut was with Delivery Boy, a film that earned acclaim at 48 international film festivals across over twenty countries. The production won 14 awards, including Best Film, Best Actor, Best Screenwriter, and Best Director. Following this recognition, I moved to Vancouver, Canada, to further hone my craft. There, I directed his second film, The Kid, which also received festival selections and won a notable prize at the Girona Film Festival.

ask me for
Over time, due to the studies and opportunities I've had, I can consider myself a flexible filmmaker. Crafting a narrative that can evoke emotions and creativity are my strengths. However, I've also studied to be able to contribute to projects as an editor, cinematographer, assistant director, director, and screenwriter.

remarks
Create unique stories, working with colours, sound and emotions.

trackrecord
The short films "Delivery boy" and "The Kid" are the main projects I was part of. Firstly, because they are films with emotional value, and also because they gave me the opportunity to be part of film festivals and win my first awards as a director. Another project that I give importance to is Contemplar Films, a production company I founded in Brazil to create content for brands.
