About
I'm a filmmaker for over 15 years now. Based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I run a full production company, Cinepoesias, working as a director, cinematographer, screenwriter and still photographer. I had documentaries broadcasted on both Brazilian Pay and FTA TV, some of which were selected for national and international festivals. I worked for brands such as Star+/Disney+; Netflix; Amazon Music; Globo; Comedy Central (Viacom); Getty Images, Al Jazeera (AJ+), The Intercept Brazil, among others. I have a wide experience producing TV shows, special reports series, corporate films, promotional videos for feature films and TV series and musical shows records. I graduated in Media Studies at Rio de Janeiro's Federal University (UFRJ) in 2009.
