About me

I'm a Portuguese-American award-winning actress and director who speaks Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, and Italian. I usually play fearless and intriguing characters, the ruthless guardian fighting for her beliefs.

With over 100 credits, you can see some of my work on Prime Video, Apple TV, and Mubi in films such as "Free Dead or Alive," "Lux," "Nova," and the TV series "Hollywood Darlings" and "Corrupt Crimes."

I am a senior green belt in the martial art Tukong Musool and a member of the Portuguese Film Academy.
