Hi, I’m Yasmim Fernandes Cruz.
I was born in Macapá, Amapá, in northern Brazil, and in 2020, I moved to Rio de Janeiro to pursue new learning opportunities and grow both personally and professionally.
A Creative Childhood
Growing up, I was an active and curious child, encouraged by my father to explore the arts and sports. To overcome my shyness, I took two years of theater classes and even played the Big Bad Wolf in a school play. At just 2 years old, I started capoeira lessons, and by 6, I was diving into ballet, which I practiced for 10 years, performing 12 times at the Municipal Theater of Macapá.
My creative journey didn’t stop there. I had a brief stint as a child model, following in my mother’s footsteps as a photo model. I walked the runway for brands like Gasoline and Colcci in my hometown. These experiences taught me discipline, confidence, and a love for expression that continues to inspire me today.
A Lifelong Love for Learning
Learning has always been a big part of my life. I attended a bilingual school from ages 6 to 12 and continued studying English until I was 17. I also explored Spanish and French and hope to deepen my knowledge of French while starting Italian and German in the future.
My passion for learning extends to the arts as well. I studied music, learned to play the recorder, and with a bit of practice, I can still play a few tunes on the keyboard.
Sharing My Passions
Books and storytelling have always been my escape and inspiration. I love reading fantasy and romance novels and sharing my thoughts with others. On TikTok, I share book reviews that have garnered views ranging from 1,500 to 18,000 – proof of my ability to connect with audiences and create engaging content.
I’ve recently discovered a love for gaming, diving into immersive worlds like The Witcher, CS, Deadlock, and Left 4 Dead 2. Gaming not only entertains me but also hones my strategic thinking – a skill I use daily in my professional life.
Bringing It All Together
From the arts to storytelling and strategy, my hobbies shape who I am and how I approach challenges. They fuel my creativity, inspire fresh ideas, and remind me of the power of connection and self-expression.
