note<br />

Encouraged by a teacher he started<br />

practicing the sport at 15. He<br />

participated in the Beijing Olympic<br />

Games and stayed in the 25th position<br />

in the qualifying trials. In 2009, he<br />

joined the Brazilian Army and today<br />

is a Sergeant. At the Daegu World<br />

Championship in South Korea 2011 he<br />

obtained the 8th place but didn’t<br />

compete at the World Indoor<br />

Championship of 2012. He enjoys<br />

watching TV when he is not training<br />

or competing and is a great admirer<br />

of the legendary pole vault jumper<br />

Sergei Bubka.<br />
