About Me

[EN] Hi (:
I'm a Brazilian graphic designer and, currently, PhD student, mainly interested in cinema, theater, games, electronic music, philosophy and contemporary art in general. I consider myself an eclectic person, in my trips I normally try to know the culture and understand some habits of people around me, although I'm a little bit shy.
