I've always been curious about money. Not in a "Wall Street" kind of way, but in a "why do we learn so little about something that matters so much?" kind of way. Growing up in different countries, I saw how culture shapes the way people think about money. Some worked hard for every cent. Others made their money work for them. That contrast stuck with me and led to a simple realization: money should be a tool, not the finish line.
As I got deeper into finance, one thing became really clear. Nobody teaches you this stuff. And when someone finally shifts how they think about money, from chasing it to using it intentionally, everything changes.
That's why I do what I do. I wanted to make finances feel less overwhelming and more empowering. Someone you can have a real conversation with and walk away actually feeling confident about your plan.
This work has been more rewarding than I imagined. I look forward to showing you what's possible when your money starts working with you, not against you.

I was born and raised in Brazil, and, in good Brazilian fashion, I’ve had a ball stuck to my feet for as long as I can remember. My love for soccer is what first opened my eyes to the importance of teamwork and grit. When I was 12, we moved to Saudi Arabia where I went to an American International School with people from all corners of the world. Being in such a multicultural environment really taught me how to adapt, stay open-minded, and appreciate different perspectives.
Then, at 15, I moved to Ferndale, Washington. I was juggling school and soccer, playing for Ferndale High School and FC Rangers, and those years really taught me resilience, leadership, and the satisfaction that comes from hard work and collaboration. I like to think that those lessons still shape how I approach both life and my career today.
Family has always been at the center of everything I do; they truly mean the world to me. My parents live in Qatar now, and my sister lives in Spain, which gives me endless inspiration and a great excuse to travel. No matter where we are, they remind me that success is only meaningful when it’s shared with the people you care about.

Outside of finance, I’ve always believed in staying active and creative. Whether it’s playing soccer, painting, or simply being active, I find balance and inspiration in every pursuit. These activities teach me patience, focus, and discipline, qualities that translate directly into how I approach both life and financial planning.
When I’m not working or training, I love spending time with my family, exploring the Pacific Northwest, or discovering new cultures and cuisines. To me, life is about connection with people, passions, and purpose.
