I am an impact-driven leader and an academic passionate to innovate. Problem solver, independent thinker, and committed to evidence-based solutions.
Over the course of my professional career, I have gained experience working for Governments, Parliament, and International Organizations in the areas of international development, economic policy, and global health.
I obtained my Ph.D. in Economics (Magna Cum Laude) from the Geneva Graduate Institute. My dissertation was about Development Economics using Brazil as a case study. Currently, I am also a Ph.D. candidate in Global Health at the University of Geneva.
I hold an MPA degree in Economic Policy Management from Columbia University, and I completed my undergraduate studies in Political Science (University of São Paulo) and Business Administration (Getulio Vargas Foundation).
In Brazil, I have co-founded a few nationwide grassroots movements to promote civic engagement and shape the political debate. I was a columnist for Nexo, an innovative news outlet.
Currently, I live in Singapore, where I research and consult for organizations committed to having impact—or evaluate their impact.
