Pereira holds the world record in the 200m individual medley, which he set at the 6th stop of the 2007 FINA World Cup.

After that, Pereira won six gold medals in the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, breaking the record of five gold medals in one Pan American Games edition held by Mark Spitz. A resident of Belo Horizonte he represented his native country at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece. There he reached the final of the 200m medley, and finished in fifth place.
