Born and raised in Campinas, São Paulo – Brazil, I made lifelong friends and started working early—delivering newspapers, washing cars, and helping my grandfather with home projects. My life changed when I got my first PC. That spark led me to a career in tech, even though I once dreamed of becoming an astronaut.
After years of evolving through hands-on roles and leadership positions, I was invited to relocate to California in 2016. Since then, I’ve been part of global projects that blend technology, strategy, and human connection.
I believe in hard work, continuous learning, and building things that matter—with people who care.
