I am originally from Brazil, living in the states for 25 years and with over two decades of hands-on experience, I am a dedicated instructor and professional protector specializing in firearms, edged weapons, and hand-to-hand combat.

I work as a Rifle and Pistol Instructor, a certified NRA Chief Range Safety Officer, NRA Firearms Instructor, and a USCCA Instructor.

I’m licensed by the Texas Department of Public Safety to teach License to Carry, School Safety, and both Level III and IV Commissioned Security Officer courses.

Additionally, I work as an Executive Protector, providing high-level security and personal protection services as well as consultation services for businesses, churches and schools.

On the mat and in close-quarters combat, I hold black belts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Judo, and I’m a certified Krav Maga and knife fighting instructor.

My background also includes service with the Texas National Guard, where I led a brush team on the Southern Border during OLS (Operation Lone Star) in Brackettville, and served as a primary firearms instructor for the soldiers that were deployed.

Whether on the range, in the field, or training others, I focus on practical, adaptable skills rooted in real-world experience.
