About

I am an adaptable and proactive audiovisual professional with experience as a film director, camera operator, editor, and image editor. My background includes film production, television, short films, acting, and directing and post-producing TEDx Lisbon 2023. I enjoy combining creative storytelling with practical technical skills to bring compelling visual projects to life.

After moving to Lisbon, I discovered Python and began a self-directed journey into data science, programming, automation, and web technologies. I am passionate about continuous learning and about combining my film experience with data-driven solutions. I am also developing an educational project in Cape Verde to introduce children to programming, Python, robotics, and English while helping encourage technological development and discover new talent.
