About

I am a professional violinist with a deep passion for teaching. As a Suzuki teacher, I work with students of all ages and levels, always aiming to create a comfortable, positive, and encouraging learning environment—one where each student can truly see their potential bloom.

I strongly believe that everyone can learn when guided by the right method and teacher. For this reason, I am highly organized, attentive, and deeply committed to my students’ progress. Much of my teaching is grounded in the fundamental principles of violin playing that I developed throughout my career as a performer.

I have performed with major orchestras in Brazil, with the Aachen Sinfonieorchester in Germany, Dubrovnik Symphony Orchestra in Croatia and ADDA Simfónica in Spain. I hold a Master’s degree in Violin Performance from the Conservatorium Maastricht.

I have over 15 years of teaching experience, including private lessons, social and educational projects, music schools, and online instruction.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is highly personalized. I take time to understand each student’s goals, expectations, and learning pace, helping them organize their practice in a clear and effective way. My priority is to build a solid technical foundation so that musicality can develop freely and naturally.

From my perspective, a beautiful sound comes first. For this reason, the learning process is always guided by bow technique and active listening. I place great emphasis on posture—body alignment, violin hold, bow hand and arm, and left-hand setup—because I know that many technical challenges, such as vibrato, intonation, articulation, and shifting, often stem from postural issues.

As a teacher, I am constantly researching and experimenting with strategies that lead to better results while keeping lessons engaging, relaxed, and motivating. My goal is not only technical improvement, but also helping students build confidence, awareness, and joy in their playing.
