I grew up in a small town in Brazil. My family has a farmer and I was surrounded by animals my entire life. I always raised cats and dogs in my house, and taking care of them was one of the most pleasant tasks and joys I ever had, even when I was a small child. When I moved to Los Angeles in order to study Screenwriting for TV in UCLA, I couldn't bring my pets with me, so I left my cat and my dog with my parents. My cat's name is Billie Holiday and my dog's name is Ella Fitzgerald. I miss the love only animals are able to give you and nothing would make me happier than taking care of them again.
