Hello! I am a Portuguese animator based in Farnham, Surrey. I have recently graduated from UCA Farnham in Animation, and I am passionate about meaningful films.
My interests lie around drawing, colour and bold choices. These bold choices are what attracts me to real stories and emotive film making.
I am never afraid of helping the film reach its full potential, being that by researching, developing new techniques or simply not being afraid to say what is important.
I enjoy the company of strong willed people, beautiful films with something to say and a good cup of coffee while animating!

- Dear England - Short FilmDear England, I want to break up. A film about my present struggles to reclaim my cultural identity as an Immigrant in the UK.
