What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities that allow me to innovate in audiovisual storytelling and collaborate with creative teams.

I am an accomplished audiovisual producer and director with over a decade of experience in the television and film industry. My journey began at Group Abril/MTv Brasil, where I honed my skills in TV production and direction from 2011 to 2014. This foundational experience paved the way for my subsequent roles at O2 Filmes and TV Globo, where I served as a line producer, managing complex projects and ensuring seamless production processes.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with prominent networks such as TNT Television, Warner Bros Television, and Discovery Network, further solidifying my expertise in television production. My role as an audiovisual producer at JL Filmes/Inova Music from 2015 to 2020 allowed me to explore innovative storytelling techniques and directorial approaches. I am particularly proud of my work directing for Multishow Globosat and my recent position as a motion director at Rex Produções Audiovisuais.

With a BFA from the New York Film Academy, I possess a strong educational background that complements my practical experience. I am fluent in Portuguese and English, with intermediate proficiency in Greek and Arabic, enabling me to work effectively in diverse environments. I am passionate about creating compelling visual narratives that resonate with audiences.
