▾ About me

A storyteller. An expat. Someone who believes ceremony is how we mark belonging.

I was born in Sobral, Ceará, in the northeast of Brazil, and moved to Ireland almost a decade ago. Somewhere along the way, this island started feeling like home. As an expat, I know what it's like to build a life between cultures, create traditions that blend old and new, and find your people far from where your story began.

Before becoming a celebrant, I trained and worked as a solicitor. Later, I moved into learning design and development, where I spent years thinking about storytelling, structure, language, and how to create experiences that genuinely connect with people. Those skills turned out to be surprisingly useful when you're entrusted with telling someone's life story, love story, or family story.

My job is to help tell those stories.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I am passionate about creating ceremonies where people feel seen, respected and celebrated exactly as they are. I work with couples and families from all backgrounds, cultures, identities and belief systems, creating spaces where everyone feels welcome.
