My Story
Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, since the first time I learned how to read and write, I wanted to create. Create stories, poems, ideas, tell something through words and imagination. When I think about my entire life, I always associate with being creative and it was that creativity that led to different professional paths.
