    I'm a Portuguese filmmaker with a licentiate's degree in Audiovisual & Multimedia. I started working professionally in 2010 and, fortunately, I had the chance to perform several roles since I started. The position I'm most comfortable at is as Video Editor, although I see myself as a competent: - Camera Operator - Film Producer - Film Director - Subtitler/Captioner I try my best to fulfill my clients' needs, not only because I like to feel that my work has value but also because I feel that a happy client often means more work and, ultimately, more clients.
