A wanderer who has always held the truth that home is a sanctuary where the heart finds solace, be it amidst the vibrant energies of Los Angeles, the vast landscapes of Australia, or the soulful rhythms of Brazil. Home, a haven where we dwell and find joy upon our return each day.

My roots intertwined with the soil of Brazil, nurturing a deep love for aesthetics and elegance. The seeds of my passion blossomed through the corridors of architecture, with my quest taking me across the seas to Australia, a realm of myriad cultures that ignited fresh sparks of inspiration and kindled a love for diverse traditions. The enchanting tapestries of Southeast Asia beckoned, with Indonesia casting a spell upon my soul. Its architecture, woven with nature's essence, and the symbiotic dance between spaces and souls left an indelible mark, birthing spaces that breathed creativity and hospitality.

These odysseys have sculpted my craft, urging me to delve deep into the essence of every space and its perception. Today, I stand poised to infuse the realms of Los Angeles and the Bay Area with my wealth of experiences and fervor for crafting extraordinary havens through ROOF. This venture, fueled by a dedication to excellence and a zest for simplifying lives, resonates with the profound ethos of Hawaiian culture.

This new chapter unfurls as a splendid metamorphosis, a crucible for both professional and personal growth. With eagerness, I embrace this path, eager to embark on this voyage. Aloha!
