who am I?

My personal experience has taken me on a journey that enables me to now deliver to others. My interest in physical performance stemmed from a health diagnosis and a budding football career. After weeks in hospital as a child, I was diagnosed with celiac disease. My focus became, to improve my quality of life, sport and more specifically football. At the age of 13, I left my home city in Brazil to play for a First Division Academy that played across the country. At 15, I received an offer to play in the Polish football league, where I stayed a few years, and then at 18, I received a great opportunity to play in Germany. Although everything began well, I sustained an injury and had to make a life-changing decision on my future career. I left for the UK, determined to learn more about the human body, fitness, and physical performance, so I could help others in their own physical quest. Leaving friends and family at such a young age to follow my dreams has obviously been challenging, however this opportunity has allowed me to mature as a person, educate myself and find my vocation: helping others become the best version of themselves.
