Machadinhobr | Palestrante

Better known in the gamer community as Machadinho, the PcD influencer began his career as an adapted bocce athlete. His victories in sports enabled him to purchase a PC, a necessary tool to kickstart his long-dreamed status as a content creator in 2017. Being a person with disabilities, Machadinho encountered many difficulties in his life, overall. However, his good humor and charisma always made him stand out with the audience. The greatest proof of this is the influencer's motorized wheelchair, paid for through an online fundraiser. Machadinho's next achievements he aims for are to become a presenter covering international championships.
