A little of my story
Around the time I was 5 years old, on Children's Day, my parents took me to a toy store and told my sister and me that we could choose a toy as a gift.
There were so many options, many shelves in the old toy store, in the center of Campinas. But I had no more doubts when I heard someone press the keys and the notes from that little piano reached my ears. Then he went to look in the corridors, where he was.
And since then I started studying music with a private teacher, then at the Carlos Gomes Music Conservatory, until arriving at Unicamp, graduating in Popular Music.
I continued working in other ways, in communication and marketing in companies. After a few years, I undertook to unite art with the corporate world, founding Sete Criativo, encouraging dialogue between art (in various forms of expression) and corporate events and training through customized artistic experiences for various companies.
In the middle of the pandemic, I moved to Mexico, where I lived for 2 years and where I was able to return to music, playing and composing (a big thank you to the encouragement of the master and inspiring pianist Silvia Goes and for participating in her Harmonizando course!) .
I will soon release an album of original songs, in a luxurious partnership with Alberto Luccas, one of the great double bass players in Brazil and the world (I didn't invent these... these are the words of the giant drummer Nenê!).
And in parallel, we continue playing wherever the music takes us, and hopefully it takes us there... close to you, in your home! Who knows, our notes might also move you!
