Football career
Born in São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, Brum started his professional career in Brazil with Fluminense Football Club and Coritiba Foot Ball Club, helping the latter win the 2003 and 2004 Paraná State championships.
Moving to Portugal, Brum joined Académica de Coimbra for 2004–05. He was an undisputed starter in his two final Primeira Liga seasons, earning him a transfer to perennial UEFA Cup qualification candidates S.C. Braga in the 2007–08 campaign.
After helping the Minho side again reach the UEFA Cup, Brum returned to Brazil, signing with Santos FC. On 16 September 2009 he joined Figueirense Futebol Clube, on loan.
In January 2011, aged nearly 33, Brum moved abroad again, signing with Alki Larnaca F.C. in Cyprus. He retired the following year after a brief spell with amateurs São Gonçalo Esporte Clube in his hometown, and started his manager career precisely with that club.
