I'm passionate about the cultural traditions of the Brazilian Northeast. To be more specific, the sertão, which I argue is much more than a corner of Brazil with little rainfall. For me, the backlands are feelings, states of mind, of those who carry within themselves a smile, faith, persistence, courage, and a little bit of mischief. I'm an advertising professional by training, and I pay my bills through art. I'm a singer, composer, writer, speaker, educator, actor, TV host, radio host... So many things, right? But I can sum it all up in one profession: I'M A STORYTELLER.
