What was it like for you to play the character Sabina in the Netflix series “Luz”, one of the first children’s series produced in Brazil for the platform?

It was a wonderful experience. Being part of Netflix’s first children’s series here in Brazil was an immense joy. Playing Sabina was incredible, as she is a very challenging character, but one that I really enjoyed playing. She also has her sensitive side, so it was a wonderful experience.

You come from a family of musicians. How has this influence impacted your journey into music and acting?

This impacted me from my mother’s tummy. My father influenced me when it came to music, and my brother too. He influenced me in acting. When I saw these two things, my father playing, my brother playing, my brother acting, I felt a desire, you know? And thank God, I managed to do what I love most in this life.

Was participating in a TV show as an anchor for Jornalzyn , on the digital platform TVZyn , a different experience for you? How was this experience?

It was really cool to do TVZyn and Jornalzyn , being the anchor. It was super fun. Another part that I found really cool about being a presenter is that I really like talking, talking to people, so it was really cool.

You played the character Chloe in the soap opera “Poliana Moça” on SBT. What was it like for you to participate in this successful soap opera?

It was really cool playing Chloe in the soap opera Poliana Moça, especially because I also played the ukulele . I was very happy when Iris gave me the opportunity to do the two things I love. It was a wonderful experience. Plus, the cast was amazing. I had the honor of acting alongside Amanda Acosta and Marcelo Airoldi, who played my parents. It was an incredible experience.

His songs were the themes of the character Chloe in “Poliana Moça”. What was it like to see your own songs being part of the soundtrack of a soap opera?

Putting my own songs on the soap opera’s soundtrack was wonderful because I made these songs with a lot of love, affection and happiness. It was an honor, especially because one of the songs connected so well with Chloe’s story. Furthermore, there is the song “O Amor Nos Encontrou”, present in the soap opera A Infância de Romeu e Julieta, which is equally beautiful.

In addition to singing, you also play several musical instruments such as guitar, ukulele , drums and piano. What is your favorite instrument and why?

His love for music and the diversity of instruments is evident! Everyone has their own magic, right? The guitar with its soft sound, the piano with its versatility, the drums with its engaging rhythm… And the ukulele , with its notes that have marked her story since she was little, bringing a unique happiness to each chord. What a beautiful connection you have with music!

At 10 years old, you are already encouraging other children, young people and adults to start studying music. What inspires you to share your passion for music with others?

It’s really rewarding to be able to inspire other people to follow the path of music, especially children. Knowing that your passion and talent motivated someone to start playing an instrument is an indescribable joy. This exchange of energy and the positive impact you have on people’s lives is truly special. Keep sharing your passion and inspiring others to discover the beauty of music!

What is it like to balance your artistic career with studies and other day-to-day activities?

It’s great when we have family support and understanding regarding our passions and activities. Having a sibling who shares the same interests certainly makes everything more natural and fun. It’s wonderful to be able to count on this support and feel free to follow your dreams and do what you love. This family harmony is truly special and makes the journey even more rewarding.

What are your future plans in music and acting? Is there a specific project you would like to do?

I want to continue doing what I love, which is singing, acting and playing, and showing this to other people, inspiring them even more. Then that’s it.
