Bio
I’m partner and film director at the film production company called Dupla Mente Filmes (Doubly Films) where I’m responsible for the direction, script and plot writing of corporate, private and advertising short films aimed at cultural purposes. I have a master’s in Theater from UNIRIO (Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro) and I have a B.A. in Theater Directing from UFRJ (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro). I worked in theater for 8 years, acting and directing plays both in Rio and São Paulo. I wrote and directed four plays: “A Farsa /The Sham” (2000), “Um coração na mala”/ A heart in a case” (2001), “Afeto/ Affection” (2003) and “Apego/ Attachment” (2004/2005).
An idea worth spreading
The more we know about ourselves, and therefore accept who we are, the more authentic we become. I truly believe the change to a better world depends on this quest for what distinguishes us. When we are authentic, our accomplishments come from responsibility, commitment and purpose.
