The night I decided I wanted to satisfy those eager for engaging in imaginary adventures I wouldn´t have dreamt this quest would take me to travel the world building my skills.

I started my career in the movie picture industry, driven by the will of transporting people to a place they could feel inspired. I knew I was in the right path when the first project I was enrolled began arousing interest of prestigious international film festivals, such as Rio International Film Festival and Rotterdam Film Festival. Then, for five years I´ve worked with films, TV shows and public relations, but always felt like something was missing.

At the time I put the last piece of the puzzle together I was playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. You shall remember this game allows the players to swing controllers like a shield and a blade, so you actually feel like a hero. I remember the click in my mind came right after my final battle with the boss: I was supposed to be making people feel like heroes, not only watching them succeed. It all made sense, especially the fact I spent all my free time playing games, not watching movies.

Games involve, encourage and have inspired generations to push creativity and technology further. I want to contribute to this industry empowering female developers, imprinting to production department the organizational and leadership skills I´ve gathered throughout the years as a Project Manager and developing alternatives to engage and represent South American developers.

Let´s get together and create imaginary friends!
