I'm a current MBA Candidate for the Stephen M. Ross School of Business and a Fellow of the Tauber Institute for Global Operations.

I am passionate about technology, digital transformation, diversity & inclusion, and international business.

Professionally, I worked in Digital Business at Itau bank, launched a startup operation in Brazil, worked with micro venture capital and was an entrepreneur. In 2012 I founded Jogo de Damas, developing projects focused on women's empowerment and in 2019, I sold the brand to Spotify.

In my career, I have worked with wonderful companies and organizations like Google, Dell, Facebook, Uber, GetNet, 99, L'Oréal, Natura, Dow, SEBRAE, Liberty Seguros, among others.

I'm a strategic thinker and enthusiastic doer. I'm equally comfortable brainstorming new ideas and opportunities as I'm getting things done.
