Who or what inspires you? What is your passion in life?
My passion is to give all in everything I do. I enjoy the nature and the little things in life.

Do you follow a special way of life? 
If yes, what is it?
Yes, I try to live my life the fullest I can and give 100% in everything I do.

Best city/place to live on earth and why?
I love Cascais, I think it is a beautiful place to live. Cascais has amazing beaches to surf and at the same time a great access to the city. This is the perfect combination for me.

If you could pick two athletes (dead or alive) to surf/ train with, who would they be and where would you go?
I would probably choose Steph and surf Snapper with her. I want to see her surf to get better in my surfing.

Best spot/training location?
My favourite beach is Praia do Guincho but I train mostly between Cascais, Costa da Caparica and Ericeira.

What are your goals for 2022/2023? What do you want to achieve next?
My goal is to be on the Challenger series in the next season.

One quote about SWOX. What do you think about SWOX? How did you get to know the company?
I am super happy to be part of the SWOX family. It is a brand that I admire a lot and that inspires me to have the same lifestyle. I got to know the brand through other athletes. I am sure this will be a great partnership and I feel comfortable in knowing that I will be protected with the best sunscreen on the market. Can’t wait for the future!
