I’m looking for a role where I can lead translations and copywriting, film-and-arts editorial work—reviews, essays, and interviews—while also contributing screenwriting and content strategy within an international creative team.

Film critic and cultural journalist crafting insightful editorial and screenwriting for international arts teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multilingual film critic and cultural journalist with 12+ years producing cultural criticism, scripts, and editorial content across film, theater, and performing arts. I’ve built a steady practice of publishing reviews, essays, and interviews for MUBI Brazil, creating work that speaks to arthouse audiences with clarity and cultural depth.
Alongside journalism, I develop original screenplays and production narratives for independent short and feature-length projects, supporting story from script through final cut. As an assistant director, I manage pre-production logistics and creative direction on set while coordinating editorial vision with directors and cinematographers.
I also strengthen my craft through translation and teaching—EN ↔ PT (and EN ↔ PT ↔ FR context) for creative, academic, and audiovisual content, plus English tutoring focused on academic writing, media literacy, and professional communication. I bring trained visual communication and art direction research to every project, from curatorial perspective to the details of spatial storytelling.
