Right eye, right hand (issf-sports.org, 2015)

He began shooting at age eight and entered his first competition at age 11. (rifle.ind.br, 01 Jan 2017; cob.org.br, 01 Aug 2015)

His parents practised shooting as a hobby. "I started shooting because I really like it. I enjoy the training, and competing is the result of that, it is part of the sport." (Bandsports Youtube channel, 03 Apr 2021; cob.org.br, 01 Aug 2015)

He trains at the Santa Monica Country Club in Curitiba, Brazil, and also has a shooting range at his home. "It was fundamental to have my own range, because last year [2020] the clubs were closed, there were no competitions happening, and I had to use it to practise and improve. That is what helped me qualify for the 2020 Olympic Games." (Bandsports Youtube channel, 03 Apr 2021)
