ABOUT
I’m not sure there was ever a moment when I decided I wanted to become a director. The truth is, I never really had to make that decision. I grew up on film sets.
My father was a film director, so my childhood was surrounded by cameras, lights, cables, monitors, and crews turning ideas into moving images. While most kids spent their school breaks at the beach or playing outside, I spent mine quietly watching productions unfold, fascinated by the way stories came to life. Without realizing it, I was learning a craft long before I understood it could become my own.
For a long time, I thought that was normal. It was only years later that I realized what a privilege it had been to grow up witnessing the filmmaking process from the inside.
My path to directing wasn’t immediate. I worked across different areas of the industry, from production to post-production, and later as an assistant director. Experiencing every stage between an idea and the finished film taught me that directing is about much more than framing a shot. It’s about understanding people, collaboration, and the countless details that come together to create something meaningful.
I’ve always believed that technique only matters when it serves emotion. That’s why I’m drawn to films where cinematography, camera movement, production design, and technology never exist simply to impress. They exist to make people feel something.
I’m especially passionate about authentic performances. I love when the camera feels like an invisible observer, quietly capturing moments that seem completely real, as if they’re unfolding for the very first time. That’s the kind of honesty I try to bring to every project.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to direct campaigns for global brands including Google, Netflix, Uber, Adidas, TikTok, Claro, O Boticário, and Coca-Cola, while filming across Latin America and Europe. I’ve also been fortunate to have my work recognized at festivals such as Cannes Lions and El Ojo de Iberoamérica. Those achievements mean a great deal to me, but they’ve never been the reason I do this.
Even today, every time I step onto a set, I still feel the same curiosity as the kid who quietly stood behind the equipment watching his father direct. The only difference is that now, I’m the one calling, “Action.”
In the end, I don’t think directing is simply the career I chose. It’s the language through which I’ve learned to understand the world.
