About Me

I'm an easy going, focused guy, who grew up in a small town surrounded by a lot of nature and open spaces, and moved to the city to study and make a living.

I'm a tech entrepreneur, in 2010 I founded a company called Nextt a software design and development consultancy firm and, through it, I was able to meet a variety of people and places in Brazil and abroad. I code in many different languages, but I'm specialised in Javascript and front end development.

I'm a rock n roll drummer, I play drums since I was 10 years old, and in 2003 I formed a band with my older brothers called Da Caverna and we have played in many of the most important underground stages in Santa Catarina, Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul. We also created an independent music festival called Rural Rock Fest which attracted some thousands of people for 9 years.

And I'm a CrossFitter. This is my last passion, the first sport that really worked and made a difference in my life. I'm starting to get part on competitions on scaled divisions and through CrossFit I started to engage on a much more healthy lifestyle.

I like to eat. I like to drink. I'm learning to cook.

I love pets. I'll respect their space and I expect you respect the space of mine too.

Music, Movies, and Books

As a musician, I like good music. I don't care about genres.
But I grew up listening to the good and old rock n roll.
I've been to shows of The Who, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Deep Purple, and many others. But I also go and have fun on shows of any type, from Country to Samba, to Electronic Music. I like what is good.

All the other arts, I love, but I don't understand about them. :P
Cinema, literature, painting, architecture, they all impress me, but I have a long way to learn about them yet. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For sure, Nextt (my company) is the "project" I'm most proud of. Through it, many other things were achieved.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot of stuff about software development and entrepreneurship and I can share a lot about it.

I know something about popular music and about music entrepreneurship.

I'd love to learn more about cooking, food, nutrition.

I'd love to learn about history of the places I live in.
Please show me your cities and yourselves history.

When I travel I love to try to live like the people from the place live (like going out on public transportation, eat on popular restaurants).
Please show me how your routine. This fascinates me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I try to be as organised and polite as I can. My intention is to not bother you and your routine in any sense. When I leave, my intention is that you don't even notice someone else was there (except for the good memories of the time we spent together).

I can help to clean. I can help to cook. And I can share my experiences if you are interested in.
