Available to hire
I am a professional guitarist and composer based in Braga, Portugal. I trained at Codarts in Rotterdam and the Amsterdam University of the Arts, focusing on jazz guitar and composition. Over the years I have taught guitar, theory, and ensemble work across Portugal and the Netherlands, while performing and recording with a wide range of artists and groups.
I enjoy collaborating with ensembles, leading educational projects such as the Braga Jazz School, and exploring music through performance and collaboration with other musicians. My work spans education, live performance, and recording, and I love turning ideas into expressive musical experiences.
