About me

Born in Lisbon, I moved to Porto in a young age where I discovered a passion for movies and photography. Studied cinema at Universidade Católica where I started my production company.

At the beginning of my career I traveled the world making surf movies. Since the first days mixing storytelling with action and for that I got invited to work with Taylor Steele on a feature film, Se7en Signs, which gave me many shortlist and awards around the globe.

Worked at BlackInk as Executive Producer and Director for several years, having the privilege to work with top Portuguese brands, agencies and TV Channels.

In 2015 joined Garage Films in Lisbon as Director. For 2 years I worked with different companies and agencies. Fuel, Havas and Partners gave me the opportunity to highlight the human side of the commercials mixed with my growing passion for cinematography.

Most recently I decided to join [nics] as film director. My goal is to shoot all around the world continuing to tell stories and help brands to communicate!
