Biography[edit]

She is the granddaughter of the cultural producer Américo Leal and daughter of actress Ângela Leal. She started in drama at the age of seven, and eight on television, when she participated in the last chapter of the soap opera Pantanal, in which her mother also worked. An only child, one may assume she was influenced by her mother in her career choice, because since she was a little girl she has been living among artists and was fascinated by the art of interpretation.[3]

In 2002, she participated in the Pastores da Noite miniseries, and in 2002, she was present in a season of children's series Sítio do Picapau Amarelo. She also came to participate in some episodes of A Grande Família, as Viviane, one of Tuco's girlfriends.[4]

In 2004, she acted in the soap opera Senhora do Destino, gaining the sympathy of the audience by clashing with the villain Nazaré, played by Renata Sorrah. Later that year, she also acted in the film Cazuza - O Tempo Não Pára, as Bebel, singer's best friend.

In 2008, she co-starred in the remake of Ciranda de Pedra as Elzinha.[5] At the end of the year, she debuted as a director in the Mercadorias e Futuro goods and theatrical spectacle, with José Paes de Lira.[6]

She is the flagship holder of the largest block of Carnival in Rio de Janeiro, the Cordão do Bola Preta.[7]

In 2011, she was part of the cast of the film Estamos Juntos,[8] participated in the last chapter of the soap opera Insensato Coração,[9] and also participated of a framework called the Fantástico, A História do Amor, in which she played 64 different characters on the side the actor Daniel de Oliveira.[10][11]

In 2012, she was in the episode "A Sexóloga de Floripa" in series As Brasileiras.[12] And the soap opera is Cheias de Charme, playing Maria do Rosário.[13] In 2013 was cast in the remake of Saramandaia, which give life to veterinary Zélia, one of the central characters of trama.[14]
