I started my scientific activity in 2010 when I defined science as my main professional target, given its dynamism and the possibility of being in contact with the most current knowledge, which can also contribute to this advance.
My research interest is in sustainability, with a strong focus on the social dimension. I am a member of an international network “Business Transparency and Sustainability Network – COPEAD Federal University of Rio de Janeiro – Brazil”, contributing to fostering more sustainable business.
I have a leadership and entrepreneurship profile, as well as skills for interdisciplinary activities and integration of workgroups. I have been working as an owner in two different companies, as a Director and consultant. These roles involved agreements and working contracts with several Large and SMEs, as well as the government. These activities were developed in parallel with my scientific activities, being a great contribution to applying scientific knowledge to business.
My background and my entrepreneurial skills allow me to form a multidisciplinary knowledge network and enable me to develop research in a transdisciplinary approach.
