I'm a Brazilian audiovisual artist based in Berlin since February 2022. I'm passionate about storytelling, and I've been studying and working with films and peripheral audiovisual activities since 2006. I can help you to show the story of your company, the importance of the people to your brand. Also, talking about my art projects, I reckon that Art can heal humanity, flowing the emotions on the screen and reaching the audience's heart, even if it happens just for a few minutes. For me, film directing is putting a group together in a harmonic way, pursuing each professional's creativity in the project. All of this motivates me to continue my path.

I work on projects at the intersections of conflict, environment, migration, and socio-ecological change. During my involvement with conflict transformation projects in the Philippines, I helped to develop collective formats with local filmmakers to spark dialogue and reconciliation through films. Since my debut documentary film “A House in Pieces” (co-directed with Jean Claire Dy), I have dedicated myself fully to filmmaking. My second feature documentary as an editor is “This is our Everything” (directed by Frederik Subei) on the radical resistance against illegal logging by Northern Brazil’s Guajajara people.

Born and based in east Berlin in 1983, I started my professional career in 1993 and since have been working in acting and filmmaking for now more than 25 years. Since 2010 I run and own the production company and creative agency Rock'n'Roll pictures and Rock'n'Roll media. Within the years I was always keen to further develop and perfect my skills and approach to filmmaking. Seeing myself more as a modern filmmaker than a Dp or director, producer or actor I realized early that if I want to make it happen, I'll have to do it with my team.
