Living in San Francisco California I'm fascinated by animation, film, and photography and their ability to transport the imagination to unimaginable places.
Early on, I fell in love with the idea of filming my productions, so I set out to learn everything I could about storytelling, and I did just that.
I produced my first short film in 1998 and entered a short and medium-length film into an international Film Festival (FICA - Festival Internacional de Cinema Ambiental) in 1999. Since then, I have made many more films and joined many festivals. I got a degree in Administration and Marketing, and in 2005 I got my post-graduate degree in Film and expanded my video production company, Voarte Filmes, to the next level.
I have been teaching myself filmmaking and cinematography for the past thirty years, and I’m still learning every day. I’m growing my business as a filmmaker, photographer, and animator studying some 360 Videos, and teaching photography and videography when I have time.
As the father of a baby and a toddler, I've had to optimize my precious time to continue doing what I love with excellence and make my clients happy!

I speak English, PORTUGUESE, and SPANISH when needed. I do respect diversity and plurality.
