Born in the Analog Era
I was born in São Paulo/Brazil, in the last generation that lived fully in the analog world. We grew up rewinding tapes, fixing antennas, dialing phones, and watching technology rewrite everything we thought we understood. Adapting became part of my identity — not just to new tools, but to new ways of living, thinking, and moving through the world.
From São Paulo to the
Southern Coast of Brazil
São Paulo taught me resilience and the ability to navigate complexity. Later, on the southern coast of Brazil — in Santa Catarina — I found balance, presence, and a slower rhythm that allowed me to hear my own thoughts. It was there that my greatest titles arrived: father of Nickolas and Sophia.
A New Life in the
United States
Immigrating to the U.S. brought opportunity — and the price of starting over. Rebuilding identity, adapting to a new culture, carrying distance, and learning to belong again became part of my journey.
Where Human Risk
Became a Philosophy
Life’s challenges — including the Alzheimer’s that took my father and my sister — pushed me to study risk deeply. Adventure sports became my laboratory: skydiving, diving, cycling, racing, aerobatic flying. Not for adrenaline — but to understand how fear behaves, how courage is built, and how we find equilibrium.
"I learned that risk is not an enemy. It is a constant. A teacher. A mirror."

A Life Dedicated to
Awareness & Purpose
Today, I am a Brazilian‑American author, financial strategist, mentor, and advocate for Alzheimer’s caregivers. My work blends philosophy, psychology, adventure, and real‑world experience to help people and companies move with clarity, intention, and purpose.
I live in Miami with my family — a reminder that even those who embrace risk need a place that feels like home.
"I don’t believe in arriving. I believe in moving — deliberately, gratefully, and toward what asks the most of us."
