A short introduction to yourself?

champion Meeting Zona Oeste, two-time intercollegiate champion, champion of the 7th CRE of student games, vice champion of student games, vice champion of LUCA (Liga Universitaria Carioca), vice champion of the state cadet.

Do you take sports as a profession or is it just a hobby?

Hobby

What challenges have you faced in getting to where you are now? You can also share any injury story.

 I come from a humble family, at the time of the base I didn’t have money for tickets, I shared lunch with my compadre, I skipped the train station to get to training and sometimes I sold sweets to pay for competitions. I recently dislocated my shoulder and that was the most serious injury I’ve ever had thank God. I’m recovering with the physical trainer of the Pablo team.

What motivates you most about your profession?

Every day is a different challenge. My focus now is to finish my college and pass a contest

Do you think everybody should practise sports or do you want everyone to learn?

If everyone practiced it would be a good idea. Sport helps a lot in our daily lives, helps in health and among others.

What tournament or match you have won are you most proud of and why?

From intercollegiate, it was a very balanced match against the triangle school where we only managed to win the game at the end of the match. It was well marked because of everything that the team had already passed the financial squeeze of each one to have reached that final.

Are there any short-term goals you’d like to accomplish in the next few months to a couple of years?

Being a state champion, playing a national league for my club, finishing college and passing some contests.
