SEEKING

ABOUT

I've been passionate about drumming all of my life. What started as a youthful interest blossomed into a lifelong dedication, and I've spent over 20 years immersed in music-performing, teaching, and exploring new musical frontiers.
My journey as a drummer began in Brazil; while I have strong roots in here my career has allowed me the flexibility to relocate and adapt to new environments with ease.
A pivotal chapter of my musical development took place in the Air Force Military Band, where I refined my skills and developed a disciplined, high-performance approach to music.
After that, I transitioned into teaching drums and percussion, eager to inspire the next generation of musicians. Most recently, my experiences as a performer on cruise ships have expanded my musical horizons, allowing me to work with diverse styles and connect with audiences from all over the world.
Each chapter of my career has been driven by a deep love for drumming and a commitment to continuously evolving as an artist and I'm excited to continue my love for the profession.
