I was born in Sāo Paulo, Brasil in 1961 and live in Milan, Italy. I have a degree in Architecture at the University of São Paulo.

During the studies I won the first prize for the Street Carnival Decoration Contest in Rio de Janeiro with some friends,
when we had also the pleasure to meet Oscar Niemeyer.

The following year with other friends we won the first prize for the Street Carnival Decoration in Sāo Paulo.

I have started  started my professional experience
as graphic designer working for Editora Globo
and Editora Paz e Terra, Brazilian publishing houses.

In 1988 I came to Italy to deepen my interests in art and design.

In Florence I worked for Giunti Marzocco publishing house.

Later, in Milan, I worked for Staff Milano (advertising agency), Fabbri editore, Club degli editori, De Agostini (publishing houses),
Mytho records (record label), Rudolf Steiner School, which are experiences spread along the years and detailed in my CV.

At last but not least two other “graphic experiences” were very significant in my life, two long paths in time and growth:
Arnoldo Mondadori Editore, publishing house, where I have worked as book cover designer for 26 years and
Ibrit, organization that promotes the Brazilian culture in Milan,
with which whom I have collaborated for 7 years.

In 2002 I designed the logo for AHPAS, association created to facilitate the public transport for children with cancer in São Paulo.
This association is the fruit of a suffering familiar experience.
Some years later I had the honour to do the cover of
Tatiana Piccardi’s book, On Elena.

My interest in Art and Antroposophy made me come back to Florence where I attended Scuola di Luca, antroposophic art therapy school.
My teachers, Fiorenza de Angelis and Robert Gorter illuminated my vision about health and artistic expression.

Since 2009 I am a member of Antares, no profit artistic association in Milan whose proposal is studying, practicing and catching on painting
as a moment for personal growth. From 2016 I am its president.

During the last two years I have also collaborated with Villa Aperta, group of different non profit associations in Milan, giving my contribute
as graphic designer and dance teacher in its cultural activities.
