About
I began my career as a makeup artist where I have collaborated with luxury and mass-market brands such as Maisons Helena Rubinstein, L’Oréal Paris, and Sisley Paris.

My journey as an educator and artist began at the American brand of L'Oréal Group, Matrix, where I spent more than a decade working.
I have achieved the position of member of the Global Design Team, in which only a select group of artists represents the brand globally.
My experience includes working on beauty education, hair shows, magazine covers, fashion and beauty editorials, advertising campaigns, and trend development, in more than 15 countries.
I placed first in the Catwalk category of the 2010 Conexão Beauty Art, the makeup contest promoted by AVON. I made it to the finals in the editorial and advertising categories of this edition.
In 2013, my own business, the Galeria, was established with a boutique concept that appeals to art and fashion enthusiasts.
For five years, I focused solely on this project.
In 2020, I accepted the invitation from the Brazilian hair cosmetics brand, Prime Pro Extreme, to take on the position of Global Artistic Coordinator, specifically working on the EMEA and LATAM markets.
At the start of 2024, I began a challenging role by becoming the Global Education Manager for the iconic brand Revlon Professional, a job position where I can explore all the experiences I have acquired throughout my professional career.
