Hello

Personal

I was born and raised in Porto Alegre Brazil where I lived for most of my life. I graduated in Architecture and Urban Planning in 2015 and made a living as a photographer and a web developer before going into game development.
People consider me a funny person, and I like to make other people laugh. I also really love cooking, baking and pets in general.

If we are friends then I'll probably offer to bake some sourdough bagels for you. Here's a picture of how they usually look.

I also bake cakes, muffins and sourdough bread but these are rarer. Recently I nailed a recipe for a double chocolate chip cookie.

I also enjoy short videos that end just as things are about to go horribly wrong. The back at is again at Krispy Kreme is my favorite

When I was an artist

I used to work as an independent artist and architecture photographer for about 6 years. During that time I showcased my work in Europe and South America. I also published a book called 1000 Years From Now. It's a visual study of the political period in Brazil between the years of 2016 and 2018.You can find more details about it here, here, and here. You can also find some of my Architectural Photography work there.

I also play Dungeons and Dragons (and other tabletop games)

Surprising, I know! But I also play Dungeons and Dragons. I've been DMing for around three or four years and I love it every time. I also really love boardgames, the most recent one that I've played is Coup.

In the past I used to make miniature terrain for Dungeons and Dragons too. I used to make them out of foam from scratch and paint them by hand. It was really fun and some of them turned out pretty good!
