Biography

The extroverted boy who dreamed of being a TV star began at the age of 13 as a school game, a career performing for children, dancing and imitating the stars of his childhood, immersing himself in research and inspiring references. His first paid jobs came and he soon started investing in costumes, accessories and equipment for his presentations. Big TV stars, in Rodrigo's interpretation, awakened the charm of children, teachers, and school directors, and their shows began touring the municipal education network of Balneário Camboriú SC and private schools. Children's Day, Carnival, various celebrations and even corporate parties were already part of his curriculum. These corporate parties planted a seed in his head about the possibility of investing in shows in the format of what is now Stand Up Comedy. With the demand and attention to detail, Rodrigo began to incorporate a cast into his performances, which included dancers. The impeccable costumes also attracted attention. The production also grew, in addition to the stage assistants, sound technicians, and photo and video team proving that the greatness and professional concern were taken seriously. Already five years into his career, Rodrigo began investing in photo production and promotional material, and soon his work reached a high-level professional status. Partnerships and social networks were very important for Rodrigo to achieve admiration and curiosity from various parts of the country and even abroad.
