He was born in 1889 on the island of Fogo. Some sources stated his nationality was a Portuguese Guinean (now Bissau Guinean or Guinea-Bissauan)

He was influenced with one of the earliest recorded writers of colonial Cape Verde especially poets including Eugénio Tavares and others including José Lopes da Silva of São Nicolau.

He later moved to the colonial (now national) capital Praia where he wrote several books and poems especially of the classical-romantic related themes. His works would later be influenced in other works including poetry and short stories, these also appeared in the magazine-review Claridade published from 1936 to 1960.
