Hi, I’m Matheus,
I came from Brazil to the United States to pursue my passion for Art and technology. I found my path into Animation during a class at Gnomon, as I realized the great potential movement brings to a static image. From that moment I never stopped animating.
I'm an empathetic person who enjoys helping others and making them feel comfortable. I believe that happy people are more productive and satisfied with themselves. Nature fascinates me; it brings me peace, adventure, and opportunities for self-reflection. I love crystals, gems, and minerals for their beauty and unique shapes. I have two lovely cats. They bring me joy and laughter, especially during stressful days.
I'm a lifelong gamer. I am thankful to have experienced the best video games from the '90s and early 2000s. With that motivation, I came to the US to be a part of the incredible creative industry that still brings joy to countless families.
See you later!
