I was born and raised in football. Both of my parents were amateur athletes, so following this path came naturally. I started in futsal and later transitioned to soccer. I played professionally for over 13 years in Brazil. While pursuing my athletic career, I earned my degrees in Physical Education (Bachelor’s and Teaching Degree), with a primary focus on women’s soccer and youth development. Even during my academic years, I was already working on the sidelines, becoming increasingly passionate about the process of teaching and athlete development.My passion for performance and athlete development led me to specialize in sports nutrition and work as a personal trainer. In addition, I sought to understand the game in all its dimensions, which also led me to become a certified soccer referee through the Brazilian Federation. This allowed me to build a complete understanding of the sport’s key pillars: rules, training, nutrition, performance, and tactics. My curiosity and athlete’s mindset — always striving to improve and reach higher levels — brought me to the United States. Since 2022, I have been building a new chapter of my career here, embracing a new culture and seeing the game from a different perspective, both on and off the field, in a country that is a global reference in athlete development. My work is based on the holistic development of the athlete, combining my entire background as a player, my professional experience, technical and tactical knowledge, specialized education, discipline, and consistency to build athletes who are autonomous, confident, competitive, and capable of sustaining high-level performance. I believe in a methodology grounded in experiential learning, movement, and the creation of healthy yet challenging environments — a purpose-driven methodology. My mission is to develop talent, build athletes, and help each player reach their best version — but above all, become better people. Sport educates. Sport changes. Sport transforms.
