About

I’m a Technical Game Designer and Systems Designer from Brasília with international experience across PC, VR, mobile, and multiplayer projects. I enjoy turning complex gameplay and system ideas into playable prototypes, then refining them through balancing, documentation, and tight collaboration with engineering, art, and production.

Across my work—ranging from Kerbal Space Program 2’s rocket parts to VR gameplay and multiplayer features—I’ve focused on player experience, progression, and feel. I’m comfortable implementing and iterating in Unity and Unreal, using C#/Blueprints where needed, and using tools like spreadsheets and Jira to make decisions that hold up under playtesting.
