Portfolio under construction. Much of my work - especially AI films and visual concepts developed for client approvals and pitch presentations - remains confidential and cannot be published. What you see here is just a small glimpse of the projects I’ve worked on.

I’m a Brazilian–Polish advertising graduate with a career built in the audiovisual industry, always driven by rhythm, precision, and storytelling.

From narrative films to award-winning projects at major festivals like the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, I shape stories through rhythm, color, and atmosphere as a senior film editor and colorist.

I began in post-production, where I developed a strong sense of narrative, timing, and structure. Today, I focus on editing advertising films and award cases, using motion design and color grading as creative extensions of the idea — always in service of clarity and impact.

With a director’s vision, I approach each project beyond the cut — thinking in tone, texture, emotion, and intention. I create worlds.

I use generative AI as a complementary creative tool: to develop concepts, test visual directions, bring life to storyboards, explore color possibilities, and accelerate decision-making. Technology enhances my process — but storytelling, sensibility, and authorship remain human.

During my time at Africa Creative, I worked closely with leading creative talent on projects recognized by major international awards, including the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity (Grand Prix, Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Shortlists), as well as the The One Show, D&AD Awards, Clio Awards, Effie Awards, El Ojo de Iberoamérica, and the Clube de Criação.

Alongside my agency experience, I’ve had entrepreneurial roles — running production companies, directing, editing, working with motion design and color grading, and acting as an executive producer. I’m also the founder and active partner of Joy03, my film production company, which I continue to run — developing and producing original projects with the same level of craft and creative ambition. These experiences strengthened my strategic vision, leadership skills, and ability to balance creativity with business and operational realities.

I’m motivated by the level of craft and intensity that advertising demands: the constant pursuit of the best solution, the right cut, and the details that elevate the work. This mindset defines both my creative process and how I collaborate with creatives.
