I began my professional journey studying medicine in my hometown of Brasília, followed by a shift to Barcelona and then Lisbon to pursue my passion for photography.

I love traveling and immersing myself in different cultures, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to help you explore and enjoy all that Lisbon has to offer.
