Born in São Paulo, Brazil, and raised in South Florida since the age of twelve, I’ve been fascinated by the art of filmmaking ever since the times I used to borrow my mom’s pocket camera as a young child.

 

The turning point for me came at the age of eleven when I was introduced to Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.

 

I knew right then and there that I wanted to become a filmmaker.

​

I am currently an undergraduate at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). I have written, directed, edited, and produced over five award-winning short films, and won the national YoungArts Merit prize in Film twice in a row. Now, at age 22, I have written and directed my first ever feature film, 'The Midway Point.'

 

My mind is continually bursting with new ideas, and I simply cannot rest until I've got a project figured out. I want to tell my stories to the world. I've come a long way from playing with a camera when I was a little boy, and I will pursue my artistic passion until the very end.
