About

I was born in Vila do Conde in 1985 and began my classical dance career at the age of five.
In 2007 I completed my degree in Dance – Education Branch, at Escola Superior de Dança (IPL).

I joined Arsenale della Danza 2010, a contemporary dance training program at the Venice Biennale.
In the same year I started taking photographs and filming in a self-taught way.
I continued my training in workshops on improvisation, choreographic composition, juggling, photography and documentary filmmaking.

In addition to creating my own work, I collaborate on projects with different artists and organizations as a co-creator, performer, trainer and stage photographer, such as: Ismael Ivo, Pedro Carvalho, Companhia Instável, Teresa Prima, troposfera.xyz, Ana Renata Polónia, Grua Crua, Filipe Baptista, Companhia Erva Daninha, Uatumã Fattori, Momento – Artistas independentes, Festival Cartografias, Festival Internacional Vaudeville Rendez-Vous, FIS Festival of Solo Performing Arts and Escola de Dança do Conservatório de Música, Teatro e Dança de Vila do Conde.

Through Grito imagens, I develop documentary photography projects.
I am a member of Ventos e Tempestades – Cultural Association, which I co-founded in 2011.
I am part of the team of FIS Festival of Solo Performing Arts, since its inception in 2015.
