Three companies. Three daughters. One relentless vision. Building something extraordinary, on my own terms.
I'm a 40-year-old Brazilian founder, a mother of 3, and a serial entrepreneur based in Florida. I spent eight years as a professional photographer before building three brands at the intersection of technology, beauty, and women's empowerment. Behind VIXA (an artificial intelligence dating clarity app), LUMAPROMPT.AI (a human-written prompt library built for women), and HAVENLY (a Gen Z makeup remover wipe heading to Sephora shelves).
This blog is where I share the real journey: building three brands while raising my three daughters, using artificial intelligence every day to work smarter (tips included), the fashion I love, from outfits I'm wearing to closet pieces up for resale, and the places I travel, with itineraries worth saving. No filter. No apologies.
On Easter day I sat at my computer for 13 hours straight and built the entire infrastructure of VIXA with zero technical background and no development team. Here is exactly how I did it.
Everyone sells manifestation like a vending machine. Here's the part the law of attraction crowd won't tell you.
Building three companies as a mother of three daughters, and what nobody tells you about doing it all at 3am.
I needed energy at 5am, clarity at noon, and fuel left for my daughters at 8pm. The carnivore diet did that.
VIXA was born from one too many nights dissecting a 'lol' text with my group chat. So I built the clarity engine instead.
There's no such thing as making the right decision.
First you make a decision — then you make it right. 🖤
The moment my first daughter was born, something unexpected woke up in me. I picked up a camera and fell in love. For eight years I worked as a professional photographer, learning to see light, read people, and tell a whole story in a single frame.
That eye for detail carried me into the beauty world building consumer packaged goods, then into mobile apps. Different industries, same obsession: creating things women actually want.
"Artificial intelligence doesn't just make the internet easier to navigate. It transforms the way you work."
Today, artificial intelligence is the most powerful tool in my building. I use it every single day, in my marketing, my product decisions, my content, and my research, and it has completely changed what one woman can build on her own.
And here's the truth most founders won't say out loud: none of my businesses have launched yet. I'm sharing this journey anyway: the business tips, the artificial intelligence operations behind everything I build, even the failures, because I'm not afraid to fail or be embarrassed in public. I won't stop until something works. That's the mindset.
So here's what this blog gives you: the real playbook. Exactly how I use artificial intelligence inside my businesses: the tools, the prompts, the wins and the flops, plus business tips, travel itineraries, and the honest lessons of building three brands as a mother of 3. Stick around. There's always something here worth taking with you.


Founder & Chief Executive Officer · HAVENLY · VIXA · LUMAPROMPT.AI
Every decision I make starts with three names: Valentina, Mili, and Scarlett. My daughters are my biggest purpose, the reason behind every company, every early morning, every leap of faith. I think of them before anything else, because they matter the most. My oldest is fifteen and about to get her driving permit. Time flies, and it reminds me every single day why I'm building this now, not someday.
HAVENLY is truly a family company: I'm building it with my two older daughters, who will be right beside me in the marketing and appearances as the brand grows. Watch our growth! And through every late night, Lucky, my dog and most loyal teammate, is curled up next to me. One day I'll launch a pet product in his honor… but for now, my whole focus is on the three.
The breakfast of champions is not cereal, it's obstacles.
Adversity has advantages. 🖤
