About me

Talking about yourself is a challenge. But as I love challenges, then let's go.

Happy, intense, extroverted, creative. Adjectives that translate my figure in childhood and that continue to be part of my personality until today.

I was born in São Paulo and grew up in Brooklin (South Zone) where I still had the privilege of playing in the street, visiting friends in the neighboring building jumping the wall and walking late at night without worrying.

Since I was a child I liked to scratch, and the drawing became a great passion. "This boy is an artist," said my grandmothers Belinha and Paulina, proudly watching my drawings made on Sunday afternoons after family lunch.

Yes, the family. If there are people who made me believe in my potential they were them. I remember to this day when my father arrived on the road and brought a 30-color Caran D'Ache watercolor pencil case. Unforgettable.

Thankfully, I have had many unforgettable moments in my life, such as fishing trips with my father and grandfather, the first skateboarding drop, getting to know Miami, failing at school, surfing the first wave, going to college, to know my wife, to have owned my agency successfully for seven years, to see my first child born, to see my second child born, to close my agency, to work with Creation, among many others.

Today, after some experiences during those 46 years, I can say that I have not settled down yet. I'm looking for more. More life experiences, more victories, less defeats, more joys, more success, more challenges, more work.
