film/TV/game/ads composer
Music has been a loyal companion throughout my life. Growing up in a family where my mother’s relatives sang in church choirs and played instruments in the church band, I was fortunate to be surrounded by music from an early age.
My passion for films and games has always been present, but after watching La La Land, everything changed...
I became deeply fascinated by composing music and then scoring to picture wich later becomes scoring sounds to picture, including sound design, music productions.
Although it took some time for me to fully begin my musical journey, the inspiration I found in films and games continued to guide me along the way.
Today, I truly value the opportunity to tell stories through music.
I come from Macaé, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and relocated to Campinas, São Paulo, in 2019 to study Music Composition at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP). While studying, I had the wonderful opportunity to connect with Filipe Leitao on Instagram, a Media Scoring professor at VCUarts in Virginia, USA. His Portuguese Media Scoring Online course greatly enriched my professional development!
Also, meeting Alex Heinrich, who guided and still guides me a lot through my earlier career as a film composer, earning studio experience, gear, and much more. And Emanuel Peres, who presented me the Brand world, as I entered as a sound designer.
In addition to my musical endeavors, I am happily married to an amazing girl. I love traveling with my family and playing video games, including my PlayStation, Switch, and my cherished old DS and 3DS! My favorite places are my cozy home with my wife, my studio, my living room with a 5.1 home theater, and an IMAX theater for the best sound and visual experience. :)
One of my favorite childhood movies is Spider-Man 2, which features a fantastic soundtrack by Danny Elfman! I also enjoy Interstellar, Bridge to Terabithia, The Incredibles, Nolan's Batman trilogy, Avatar (2009), Narnia, and many Marvel movies.
