Born in Araçatuba, Brazil, he captivated audiences early on with his dance prowess and went on to complete his dance and acting studies in São Paulo. The prestigious São Paulo State Theatre recognized his talent, marking the beginning of his journey through the world of stage arts. In 1995, he ventured to Germany, where the Cottbus State Theatre signed him as a solo dancer for two years. His exceptional portrayal of "Puck" in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" earned him recognition as the Dance Emerging Talent of the Year by "Tanz International" in 1996. Driven by a passion for singing, he pursued vocal training, leading to his first leading singing role in the Swiss musical "Space Dream" in Berlin. This marked the onset of an impressive career through the leading musical theaters in the German-speaking region. Engagements followed in productions such as "Starlight Express" in Bochum, "Tabaluga & Lilli" in Oberhausen, Elton John's musical "Aida" in Essen, and appearances in "Romeo and Juliet" at the United Stages of Vienna, as well as Disney's "Beauty and the Beast." His versatility in musical theater was showcased as a soloist in the musical gala production "Over the Rainbow - Musicals in Concert," touring nationwide. In parallel with his stage presence, he unfolded his creative side in music. As the lead singer of the pop project "The Drapers," he gained prominence in 2010 with the hit "We no Speak Americano." Television appearances and engagements in major shows like "The Dome" and "Pink Ribbon Gala" followed. In addition to his role as a musical performer, he successfully ventured into choreography and direction for various stage productions. Projects such as "Tabaluga and Lilli Gala" and the musical "Kaltes Herz" attest to his versatility. In St. Gallen, Switzerland, in 2012, he added another highlight to his career with a role in the musical "Chicago." Further stops include performances at the Metronom Theater in Oberhausen, including a role in "Sister Act," and a three-year stint at the Bochum Schauspielhaus in the musical "Spamalot." In 2019, he returned to the Nuremberg Opera to once again embody the role of Bernardo in "West Side Story," a decade after his successful performance in Bad Hersfeld. Currently, he continues his musical journey, touring with various musical galas, and has additionally successfully completed a graphic design degree. His skills as an artist are reflected not only on stage but also in the world of digital art and photography.
