"I love telling stories that connect with people, capturing life's little moments, and sketching in cozy coffes."

I'm an animator and visual storyteller based in São Paulo, Brazil. I'm currently in my final year of the Animation and Cinema program at FAAP and previously completed an High School Diploma with an Integrated Technical Program in Systems Development at ETEC.
I enjoy bringing stories to life across a wide range of mediums and visual styles. Throughout my career, I've contributed to indie games (Lapse: Escape the House), cut-out animated series (O Fantástico Pós-Vida com [Hector Plasma] at Flambo), and stop-motion productions (CineSesc Vignette at Coala Audiovisual Productions) etc.
These experiences have given me a strong foundation in both the artistic and technical sides of animation. From visual storytelling, composition, and animation principles to production pipelines and industry-standard software, I enjoy combining creativity with practical problem-solving to support every stage of the production process.
My work is inspired by everyday life, my family, and the manga and cartoons I grew up with. I'm a curious and versatile artist who enjoys wearing many hats, continuously learning new skills, and contributing wherever I'm needed to help bring a project to life.
