About me

I'm a European Portuguese voice artist, radio host, podcaster and communication professional specializing in conversational AI, TTS, localization and emotionally authentic voice work. What interests me most is the space where technology and human communication meet — and how voice can make AI feel more natural, believable and emotionally intelligent.

Over the years, I've worked across branding, storytelling, radio and podcast production, developing a strong understanding of rhythm, tone, pacing and emotional nuance. That experience now informs the way I approach AI voice, conversational speech and localization projects. I work with companies, studios and creative teams on:
- Conversational AI recordings
- TTS and speech datasets
- AI dubbing and localization
- European Portuguese (PT-PT) adaptation
- Natural speech recordings
- Pronunciation and naturalness review
- Audio and speech QA

My voice style ranges from warm and intimate to clear, conversational and corporate, depending on the project needs. I'm especially interested in work that requires authentic human delivery rather than overly polished or artificial-sounding performances.
Before moving into voice and audio, I spent more than 17 years working in communication, branding and content strategy, collaborating with agencies and brands on creative and narrative-driven projects.
Alongside my voice work, I also host and produce music and storytelling podcasts focused on emotion, culture and sonic atmosphere — experiences that continue to shape my sensitivity to sound, narrative and human connection.
I'm always interested in collaborating on projects exploring the future of voice, AI and communication in meaningful and human-centered ways.
