About me

Educator, lawyer, and communications graduate with a Master's degree in Humanities, Rights, and Other Legitimacies from USP. I participated in three international programs in the United States and Europe focused on human rights and entrepreneurship. Today, I contribute to the expansion of Afro-Brazilian knowledge worldwide.

In 2023, I was named one of the most influential Black people by the Most Influential People of African Descent under 40. In 2022, I spoke at the UN in defense of Black women teachers.

I have worked as an educator and speaker at institutions such as SESC, SENAC, the Democratic Public Ministry, and the OAB, as well as private companies that understand the values of diversity and the application of human rights that dignify life and well-being.
