about me
I am a Lisbon-born, trained actress currently based in Amsterdam. I have extensive experience acting on stage, and in recent years, I have focused on acting for camera, having appeared in TV series, short films and a music video. I can perform in Portuguese, English and Dutch.
I just wrapped up a lead role in a Psycho-inspired horror short film, playing an emotionally complex character. Previously, I played lead roles in a short film and in a music video of a Dutch artist.
Next up, you will see me in the independent short film "Beauty of Life" and as a day player in an independent miniseries.
Intense, mysterious, authentic but also passionate and enthusiastic.
I'm available for international work.
