You see, like almost everyone else, I start drawing when I was a kid, and since then I've nurtured a desire to create and tell stories. Life happens wherever you are, whether you make it or not, and after a long hiatus, I'm back to my art roots, and I've been exploring my creative side everyday since January 2019.

In high school, spent long hours drawing and always have been a fan of fantasy and fiction, movies, books, and Disney animations.

I love cinema, since I was a kid watching movies is my favorite activity, I started studying Vfx and Animation on my own, and I realized that that was what I wanted for my career. I graduated in Radio TV and internet at the Methodist University of São Paulo and today I am a post-graduate student in Vfx at Faculdade Méliès

As a child I loved playing video games and was fascinated with movies and cartoons. I always liked to see the special effects and powers used in games and movies. That was when I decided that I wanted to learn to work with these effects and animations.

Both my mother and father had drawing and painting as some of their hobbies, so I was introduced to that practice as a little kid. Eventually, as I grew older, and at about 8 years old I began taking drawing classes. Once I realized that the entertainment industry was a thing and that most things I spent a lot of time with and loved came from there, I knew that I wanted to have my hand in it. Since then I have only been falling more and more in love with art and entertainment.

Since little I have been facinated by art and video games. Started drawing and painting with real media later on fully migrating to digital art. Enjoy concepting Scyfi and Fantasy themes both on 2D and 3D.

As a kid, i used to believe that 3D animations were real. Growing up i've learned that they weren't, but i could make it real, not just for me but for the people who share the same love as i do.

Quando decidi parar de trabalhar com dança. Procurei outras possibilidades na área artística, foi quando descobri a modelagem 3D. Então me matriculei em um curso online.

Actually, since I was a boy. I used to love marvel movies and animes as a kid, so animation (2d or 3d) is something else for me and I excited to work with that.

Ever since i was little,i had a passion for drawing, and recently after learning about the digital arts,i decided to emerge myself into 3d work.

when movie and game productions

Since I was a child I intended to work in the creative industry, I started my journey with graphic design working in the communication field, in 2021 I started an animation course with the desire to work with a visual developer artist.

When I was in the last semester in Advertising College, I decided to go deep in my art studies. So here I am. Hope you enjoy :)

Since I was a kid, I always found so interesting and fun to watch and play movies and games that do not have a actual actor. And that was so fascinating that I wanted to create something myself

Since when I was little, I enjoyed drawing and watching animation. As I grew up, I started to study how to draw and animes were my biggest inspiration at the time. I studied at Faculdade Méliès as my undergraduation and I'm doing now a Graduation of 2D Animation. So, I can tell that the moment I realised I wanted to work in the creative media was when I was just a little girl watching animations and reading manga.

When I was a little kid I was fascinated about Animation movies, such as Tarzan, Hercules, Life Bug but one of them caught my attention in every possible way, Toy Story. From that day on my life completely changed and I knew that one day I would learn more about this world. Some years have passed and I started college and since the first 3D class I knew that I would never leave this world.

When I was on high school, I wanted to make games, but didn't even imagined that was possible to build a carreer neither great univ. shown Games as a choice in Brazil at that time. Just in the pandemic I started to participate on Game Jams and study game dev. and in this journey I met incredible people and brazilian communities that encouraged me to pursue a carrer as Game Artist then when I graduated in Finances I started a postgraduation in Game Art for a carrer change.

After working for 6 months in one of the Disney parks, my passion for audiovisual production was reignited, showing me that the videos I made as a teenager in school were not just a hobby, but a career passion. After that, I switched careers and started studying art and audiovisual productions.

I started to work as soon as possible in order to help financially my family. All those times spent doing monotonous and robotic tasks made me realize that we only live once. I didn't want to have any regret. I believe it is best to spend our time doing something we enjoy, even if it means going on a journey full of obstacles to reach my dream.

I've always dreamed of bringing my own characters to life. After working as a Motion Designer and illustrator for at least 4 years, I finally mustered the courage to dive into the 3D world of possibilities amidst the pandemic (2021). As I began learning, I fell in love with it and applied to Faculdade Méliès, where I created my first short film (2024).

I've been working as a designer for 23 years, but I've always wanted to work in the animation market, this year I started studying at Méliès College to make that dream come true.
