Interests
After thinking I would be a 3D animator, I discovered film production, which changed my life, and I began training in that field. I never gave it up, and to this day, I have deep admiration for that work. For me, it's like a springboard, where people come with ideas, and your job is to promote them so that they become known and that collective dream comes true. I love being on set, meeting people, and that feeling of being isolated from the real world, doing things that only those of us in this world understand. This love for being there led me to train as an assistant director, as I found another way to put my organizational and management skills into practice, combined with creative problem-solving in collaboration with the director.
