I'm a Brazilian artist and athlete, living in the U.S. for the past ten years. After retiring from a career in banking and technology in 2024, I chose to fully dedicate myself to studying the arts. My artistic journey began with classical portrait painting at the Art Students League in New York, where I studied under Sharon Sprung and developed a deep appreciation for traditional European painting techniques.
What began as a creative outlet soon became a lifelong passion, leading me to explore sculpture through my studies at UWLAX and to earn a Digital Photography Certificate from eCornell. These disciplines have allowed me to explore storytelling through both form and image.
Sports have always been central to my life, I played volleyball competitively in Brazil and now participate as a master athlete in national events.
Note: My photography services and artwork are not available for sale at this time, as I am currently focused on my education and personal art projects.
Thank you / Obrigada!
