My creative journey began in the kitchen. I spent nearly a decade working as a chef, where I developed a deep appreciation for creative processes.

I then wandered through vineyards and farms in France, where I discovered a deep love for hands-on creation.

With roots in carpentry and a need to learn, I returned to Portugal to dive into woodworking — not just in school, but by learning from real people, in real spaces. Many of the people I met along the way played a key role in shaping who I am as an artist today, and I’m deeply grateful for them.

My work explores the harmony between tradition and innovation. I blend color, form, movement, and texture to create pieces that bridge past and future — transforming wood into stories. As an emerging artist, I’m searching for the balance between functionality and expression.

I'm open to collaboration and love projects that push boundaries or go off-grid. I'm here to experiment, evolve, and challenge myself — all from my studio in the heart of Lisbon.
