I'm originally from Cascavel, a small town in the south of Brazil. I began my acting journey in 2005 and later honed my skills in directing and screenwriting at UCLA. In LA,I created the non-linear horror short film "Neighbors, " starring Marilyn Ghigliotti ("Clerks"). It premiered at the Los Angeles Brazilian Film Festival and earned the Best Achievement in Music award at the Paura Festival Internacional de Cine de Terror. I also contributed as a filmmaker and photographer at Noora Health in Bangalore, India, crafting educational films that blend storytelling with medical content. Based in Munich, Germany, I co-wrote and assisted directed the Student Oscars-nominated "Prisoners of the Body." Currently, I'm developing "Dragonfly," my first feature film, selected for a pitching session at the 22o Festival Kinoarte de Cinema.
