I've spent 15 years writing scripts that premiered at the Venice Film Festival, Rotterdam IFFR, and the BFI London Film Festival - and I know exactly what separates a script that gets produced from one that doesn't.

About

I’ve spent 15 years writing scripts that premiered at the Venice Film Festival, Rotterdam IFFR, and the BFI London Film Festival - and I know exactly what separates a script that gets produced from one that doesn’t. I’d love to help you get yours there.

I am an award-winning scriptwriter and communications professional based in Berlin, writing in English and Brazilian Portuguese. I created and head-wrote a 3-season comedy series for Canal Brasil, with films premiering at Venice, Rotterdam, and the BFI London Film Festival. I bring 15 years of storytelling expertise to brand communications, content strategy, and social media management.

I collaborate across media and formats, blending narrative craft with results-driven communication. My work spans TV, film, and corporate storytelling, and I enjoy building voice, strategy, and creative teams that deliver on deadlines and audiences.
