Such passion never ceased: as everyone said that I should learn how to code to make games, I decided to do my undergrad in Computer Engineering at UFSCar (Brazil). After that, I worked for a while in a Brazilian indie game company (iMax Games), just to find out that there is much more to games than coding and art. I discovered design! I realized that I needed to understand better the intricate elements of the game world and its rules, to create those amazing experiences that I’ve always dreamed of. Because of that, I went all the way to the US, where I got my Master’s Degree in Level Design in the Guildhall at Southern Methodist University.

​

Back in Brazil, I worked for over a year as a Game Programmer in Tapps Games, where I learned a lot not only about game dev but also about how larger companies run in general. After that, I joined Gilp Studio to collaborate as a Level Designer in the development of Areia. After its release, I continued working with Gilp as a Development Lead on the Neko Dungeon project, my first experience coordinating a team and one that I treasure so much for everything that I learned.

 

Fast forward to 2020, COVID happened and remote work became the norm. With that, I was able to join Digital Extremes, working on Warframe as a Technical Designer, unifying my passions for scripting and game/level design. Today, almost 2024, I have been able to move to Canada, working hybrid - some days at the studio, others at home - and very happy delivering incredible updates to players all around the world =D!
