Born and raised in Recife, Brazil, Marcelo ventured to Athens after completing his Civil Engineering degree, enrolling in UGA's American Language Program to master English, the "language of business." Despite initially planning to return home for a civil engineering career, he quickly fell for Athens' unique charm—a perfect fusion of rural and urban life, boasting UGA's influence, delightful weather, exceptional restaurants, and a thriving music scene.
Valentine’s Day 2020 brought an unexpected turn as an overnight incident led to a fire at Marcelo's workplace, abruptly ending his 12-year tenure as a Production Manager. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, job opportunities dwindled, prompting Marcelo to reassess his goals and priorities.
Having spent nearly two decades in corporate roles in Athens, GA, Marcelo faced the challenge of reinventing his career. Realizing life's richness beyond work and bills, he embraced a suggestion from friends to explore real estate. Empowered by family support, Marcelo embraced the challenge, diligently studying and obtaining his real estate license. His shift from a corporate background to real estate marked a new chapter—a chance to run his own business, connecting with clients on a personal level.
As a Realtor, Marcelo found immense satisfaction in aiding clients on their homeownership journey and deepening his connection with Athens. Beyond real estate, Marcelo is an avid guitarist for The Original Screw Tops, a blues band he co-founded, contributing to Athens' vibrant music scene.
When not showcasing properties or meeting clients, Marcelo offers a professional and personal touch to simplify and enhance the home buying/selling process. He believes this significant life event should be enjoyable, not frustrating. Reach out to Marcelo for a seamless and rewarding real estate experience.
