I'm a Brazil-born, sun-loving soul who's been working with some of the coolest stop-motion animations around the world. My most recent gig was Senior Stop Motion Animator on 'Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio', which got the Oscar among 71 other awards. I was the one responsible for bringing the journey of Death to life – the enigmatic ruler of Limbo.

     I've got a list of credits including the sequel 'Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget' from the acclaimed studio Aardman as well as the Oscar-nominated gems 'Kubo and the Two Strings' by LAIKA (2016) and Wes Anderson's 'Isle of Dogs' (2018).

      In addition to animating, I directed and created 'Sol em Dó Ré Mi', a TV series about a cheerful musician girl who explores a magical world and learns that routines can be an absolute fun. Release in 2024! 

      When I'm not animating or directing, I engage in conferences and workshops, sharing my expertise with students and animation enthusiasts. I've had the privilege of being invited to countries such as Spain, Poland, Portugal, and Norway, where I've discussed everything from bringing characters to life to setting the perfect tone for every scene in a feature film.

      I'm currently working on LAIKA's next film, 'Wildwood'  in Portland/USA.
