Parallel to my life in the theatre, I've nurtured a profound passion for the beautiful game (ie football, ie soccer) since, well, birth - being Brazilian, I do have an obligation to love the sport. 

I’ve written for several websites and publications in the past, including Just-Football.comO Jogo Bonito.net, Brazil’s O Globo, Soccer 360 magazine and The Score’s Footy Blog; and I’ve also talked footy on CBC television and CKUW radio as a regular guest during the World Cup since the 2010 edition of the tournament.

Additionally, I have been a self-described 'Playstation Athlete' since 1998, and I challenge you to a FIFA Soccer duel.

Also, occasionally (very rarely these days), I write for my personal sports blog, right here:
