He improved his best to 5.40 metres in May and went on to place second nationally at the Brazilian Athletics Championships. He was fourth at the 2011 South American Championships in Athletics. His 2012 was highlighted by a new personal best of 5.45 m and a silver medal at the 2012 Ibero-American Championships in Athletics.
At the beginning of 2013, he rapidly ascended to the top of the regional rankings. He cleared a South American indoor record of 5.66 m, then another of 5.71 m in March. He won at the Grande Premio Brasil Caixa de Atletismo with an outdoor best of 5.70 m, beating reigning South American champion Fabio Gomes da Silva.
