Giorgio Armani . Fact|date=February 2007Bruno grew up with three brothers and one sister, and held many jobs since the age 12, including construction and farmwork. He was an engineering student before he became a model, and taught math as a side job during his schooling.
Bruno had not considered modeling as a career, but in 2000, his girlfriend, who was modeling at the time, introduced him to her agency. The agency agreed to pay for his expenses to try out in Europe,Fact|date=February 2007 but Bruno was working full-time and didn't take the offer seriously. But the agency and his friends eventually changed Bruno's mind about modeling.
Bruno traveled to Paris, where he met his agent Ike Gamez. It was Ike Gamez who introduced Bruno into mainstream high-fashion, which led to the campaigns for Versace shot by
Steven Klein and Armani byPeter Lindburgh .He considers traveling around the world and experiencing different cultures as a positive point of modeling, especially when he met his secret crush
Christina Aguilera at a Versace shoot. But considers traveling away from home and family as a downside. In his home country Brazil, Bruno owns a restaurant where his family works.
