LIFE

“Transmit with art and educate with stories move my purpose to give life to dreams. Rescuing each other’s imagination and stimulating creativity, leadership and achievement is very inspiring for me.”

Dream Creator

Jayme Monjardim brings light to his works with a unique and magical look. He has been director of Rede Globo for 37 years, where he has already directed more than 21 soap operas and 11 miniseries. He is also a filmmaker, and his big screen debut was with the movie “Olga.” 

A lover of the female universe, Jayme conveys strength and power through his protagonists. Characters that are not only reference and inspiration, but they also exceed in creativity and present a strong leadership movement. 

Leader himself, Jayme Monjardim is emotion. The magic of his creations moves his purpose to give life to dreams. Dream Creator rescues, in the imagination of each one the encouragement of never stop trying. It is like Walt Disney said, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”
