Available to hire
I am a Brazilian jazz pianist, composer, arranger, multi-instrumentalist, and musical director who loves exploring complex harmonies and a wide palette of rhythms.
Over the years I’ve released four original instrumental albums—Refúgio (2000), Duas Madrugadas (2005), Eyin Okan (2011), Noite e Dias (2022)—as well as two albums of arrangements. I’ve performed around Europe, Brazil, and beyond, taught masterclasses in Italy, and currently teach at Conservatório Souza Lima/Berklee.
