Overview
About Me
I’m a 35-year-old Brazilian professional passionate about broadcasting, leadership, and making big projects come to life.
At Globo, I had the honor of leading one of the largest Olympic transmissions in history, a true dream come true.
Over the years, I’ve delivered more than 2,000 events, always driven by my love for sports and their power to inspire people.
I believe in leading with trust, empathy, and collaboration, creating an environment where teams can thrive.
Beyond work, I’m a proud husband and father, and I love sharing life’s adventures with my wife and my 5-year-old daughter.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I’m on Couchsurfing because I truly enjoy connecting with people and experiencing places through a local’s perspective.
Travel, for me, is not just about seeing landmarks, but about sharing stories, cultures, and little everyday moments that make each city unique.
It’s a way to build friendships across borders and remind ourselves how much we have in common, no matter where we come from.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the most amazing things I’ve done was leading the broadcast of the Olympic Games for Globo, creating a virtual Paris and even a studio inside the Eiffel Tower. It was a huge challenge, but also a dream come true, combining my passion for sports, technology, and teamwork to bring the magic of the Olympics to millions of people.
