What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities in dynamic environments that foster creativity and collaboration.

I am a dedicated Cultural Production General Administrative Assistant with a strong background in organizing and planning cultural events, exhibitions, and screenings. Since 2017, I have been actively involved in the cultural production sector, where I have honed my skills in curating films, managing social networks, and developing presentations and portfolios. My academic journey in Communication - Cinema and Digital Media has equipped me with the knowledge and creativity necessary to excel in this dynamic field.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to various projects, including my role as a member of the pre-selection committee for the National Short Film Showcase at Festival Curta Brasília. My experience also includes general coordination at Filmaki, where I assisted in the production of cultural events. I pride myself on my ability to work collaboratively with teams, manage logistics, and ensure the successful execution of projects that celebrate cinema and virtual reality.
