About

I’m a multidisciplinary project manager and events coordinator with experience delivering international cultural, artistic, and educational projects across music, sports, and live performance. I thrive on coordinating complex programs from enquiry to delivery, collaborating with international artists, agents, venues, and public institutions.

I design engaging experiences, empower cross-functional teams, and ensure robust risk management, budgets, and reporting. Fluent in Portuguese and English, with German at a beginner level, I enjoy bridging cultures and delivering high-quality, impactful projects.
