Hi!
I love designing experiences and translate concepts for stage, festivals, immersive experiences, workshops, and film.
I’m currently based in Stockholm, though often on the move for experiments and projects, carrying the warmth of my Brazilian heritage with me.
My journey started in content management, design services and digital production in tech, and has transitioned into creative technology, audiovisual, moving image, and sound. Besides that I always led my performing practices music production, performance arts, dance.
I’m currently working both as freelancer, while also developing an artist practice “Feelz Lab”, where I develop concepts, in experiential ways - through innovative mediums and spaces.
This practice has led me, most recently, to take part in renowed festivals and institutions such as the Sónar Barcelona 2024 (SP), WIP Arts & Technology Festival (CY), Aavistus Festival - Biennale of Visual Arts (FI), exhibit at Tekniska Museum, Värmeverket (SE), and hosted sessions at renowed institutions such as CYENS, Hyper Island & Helsinki City Museum and Motion Plus Design Satellite, Creative mornings.
I have also lived in Berlin, Sydney, Budapest, San Francisco, New York and São Paulo.

Often times, I design concepts based on feelings, moods and aesthetics.
I love to play with colorful palettes, textures, a fusion of abstract and realistic themes, and telling stories through moving image and electronic athmospheric sounds.
