-HOW I STARTED MODELINGI was born in Samambaia and I was working as a car mechanic in my hometown, satellite city of Brasilia, one day a model scout of a local agency with a flat tire asked me if I could replace it, then there was a little chat, she told me that I had the ideal profile for shows, campaigns and editorials.
-THE ELITE' CONTEST AND THE FIRST MODELING JOBS
Immediately afterwards I started working in Brasilia and I was selected in the first place to participate the masculine local stage of the competition the "Elite Model Look" staying in the first place of the national stage during the year 2001. Two years later I started working for Karl Lagerfeld and before my first parade I signed a contract for the campaigns of Chanel, Zara and Lagerfeld Gallery.
-TRAVELING AROUND THE WORLD DOING CAMPAIGNSThanks to help of the “godfather” Lagerfeld, I started traveling around the world I didn't stop anymore, doing campaigns for Gucci, Valentino, Pepe Jeans (with Siena Miller), Robert Cavalli, Carolina Herrera, Christian Lacroix, Calvin Klein, Laura Biagiotti, Emanuel Ungaro, Bagutta, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Christian Dior (with Monica Bellucci), Guess, Hugo Boss and others. I have worked with big photographers like Steven Miesel, Steven Klein, Mario Testino, Craig Mac Dean, Milan Vukmiroric and I did commercials for GARNIER, CHRISTIAN LACROIX, LAURA BIAGIOTTI, CK1 among others.
Thank you Romulo!!
