Hello,
I am a Brazilian freelance film director, animator, illustrator, as well as a father and banjo player, with experience working on short and feature films, kids shows and advertisement pieces.
I am passionate about telling stories and creating universes. I've performed almost every type of role in this area, from script writing and developing storyboards and concepts, to character design and animation. More recently, I've been focusing on my work as an illustrator.
My last short film "TOM" had its international premiere at the 31st Animafest Zagreb (Croatia), the second oldest festival dedicated to animation. Since then, it has been screened around the world in more than 40 festivals. Among them:
BITBANG - Argentina

Animatricks - Finland
Warsaw Animation Festival - Poland
GIRAF17 - Canada
Kerry International Film Festival - Ireland
5th Lanterna Mágica International Animation Festival - Brazil
