Biography

Born and raised in Curitiba, Brazil, lived in the U.S. on a few occasions while studying for my Bachelor in Tourism. As I had always been passionate about traveling, meeting new people and different cultures, offhandedly emerged my interest in photography. Between courses and internships, I graduated among the top ten students of my class at Hallmark Institute of Photography in Massachusetts, USA. While living in New York, I had the opportunity to work closely with Sante D'Orazio, Matt Jones, Gregory Heisler and many others distinguished photographers. Afterwards I returned to Brazil where I'd started my own business in advertising and fashion photography and participating work in international events such as Who's Next Prêt-à-Porter at Paris Fashion Week. In 2017, I was the photographer of "A Arte do Vestituario" (The Art of Garment) - a historical and editorial publication of the textile industry that began in southern Brazil. My latest accomplishment has been graduating from New York Film Academy in 2018 where I'd pursuit Filmmaking. Throughout my professional carrier thus far, my focus has been on stirring up emotions, bringing up memories and capturing moments that can be enjoyed both in my short films and the Behind the Scenes images from my various projects.
