Vitória, the pronunciation here is actually excellent! Well done. There are a few small things for me to comment on.
When you have consonants like N and M, I notice too much nasalization of the vowel sound before (e.g. "name"). This is not a huge problem, but it is quite noticeable.
The predominant element producing an accent here is what we can call a "resonance centre." This is about where the sound is being aimed in the "vocal mask." Different accents target different areas in the mouth and nose. American English should be "aimed" at the space between the upper lip and the nose. Your accent is a little too nasal, which could alter the sound of some vowels and cause some confusion sometimes. I can help you with this!
There are some small issues with other words. See below.
Words on which I noticed your accent:
name
nineteen
younger
fourteen
friendly
New York (stress YORK)
hard (this needs to be more round— more R!)
love
Tony (not 'tunny' but "TOE-nee" (long O)
each other
