About me
Master in Performing Arts, Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, UNI RIO • Bachelor in Performing Arts, Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, UNI RIO • Dancer, teacher, choreographer, and researcher in theater, education, and contemporary dance. I am a performing arts artist, particularly in dance and theater. My interests have always been to explore, discover, and create ways to express ourselves through movement, whether on stage, in life, or in the relationships that shape and build us, both as individuals and as social artists.
