Message

At Storytel Brasil, I directed the official Portuguese audiobooks of the Harry Potter saga and Mulher Maravilha, the service’s first original audiobook in Brazil. I also created and directed the first original audio shows for HBO Latin America, inspired by its series.

I directed, wrote, produced, and edited AmarElo Prisma, a four-part audio documentary made with Emicida in partnership with Lab Fantasma and Mutato. My narrative work includes feature films and shorts selected for festivals including Sitges and the São Paulo International Film Festival.

I’m now showrunning two fiction shows for Globoplay and working on two feature film scripts. My work has also spanned advertising, music videos, and projects across Brazil and international markets.
