Do What You Love
There wasn’t one moment that changed everything.
It happened gradually.
I studied International Business in Brazil and built a successful career in the corporate world. The work was meaningful, but I found myself drawn to something completely different. Whenever I had free time, I wasn’t reading about logistics or operations, I had a camera in my hands.
Photography started as a hobby.
Then it became a side business.
Before long, I had photographed hundreds of clients, learning how to tell stories through images while building a business from scratch. What I thought was a passion for photography turned out to be something bigger: I loved creating experiences, solving problems, and helping people present their best work to the world.
That realization changed the direction of my career.
My family and I moved from Brazil to the United States, where I studied Digital Content Creation at Ensign College. There I expanded far beyond photography, learning branding, design, video production, copywriting, UX, social media, advertising, and business strategy. More importantly, I learned how all of those disciplines work together to help organizations grow.
Today, I don’t see myself as just a marketer or a photographer.
I help businesses build brands people trust.
Sometimes that means creating a new visual identity. Sometimes it’s rebuilding an ecommerce experience, launching products on Amazon, producing campaigns, designing packaging, improving customer journeys, or developing systems that consistently generate leads. Every project is different, but the goal is always the same: create work that is both beautiful and effective.
Over the years I’ve worked with startups, restaurants, ecommerce brands, healthcare companies, nonprofits, educational institutions, and personal brands. I’ve helped rebrand companies, scale social media audiences, reduce advertising costs, launch new products, and build marketing systems that continue delivering results long after the initial project is finished.
I’m still learning.
That’s one thing I hope never changes.
Technology evolves, marketing changes, and new creative tools appear every year. Staying curious has been one of the greatest advantages of my career, and it’s what keeps this work exciting.
This portfolio is a collection of projects I’m proud of—not because they’re perfect, but because each one represents a problem solved, a business improved, and another opportunity to create something meaningful.
Welcome.
