A little more about me

I was born in Brazil. Sixteen years later, I came to the States to be an exchange student and fell in love with America.

Later, I studied Business Administration and Media Communications in my hometown of Brasilia.

Since graduation, I have been doing hard news – writing stories, editing, and presenting them on radio or TV.

Now that my kids are already on their way to middle school, I decided to pursue an old dream: writing fiction. Most recently, I studied at Full Sail University, in Florida, where I received my Certificate in Creative Writing.

RARE CONDITION WEBSITE

Besides writing fiction, I have a website where I gather all information I can about a rare chromosome disorder that affects my son. It is called 48,XXYY. You are welcome to visit and know a little about the condition.

PRESENTING HARD NEWS: TV AND YOUTUBE

I have been writing for the official media of the Brazilian Senate. In the past 11 years I have written for the official website mostly about politics and laws, and I also have worked at the Senate's broadcasting TV.
