Activist, Buddhist, Business mentor, Concerned citizen, Entrepreneur, Finance professional, Gay, Idea generator

A restless, curious human being, passionate about learning, trying to get to know me better, and thus being able to contribute to the evolution of our world. Passionate about traveling, getting to know different places, people and cultures. I do this through reading as well. I have dedicated myself to meditation and the study of Buddhist philosophies. 4 years ago I opted for vegetarian food, and conscious consumption, thinking about the sustainability of the planet. Administrator, with specialization in Corporate Finance, I have worked professionally in technology companies (Startups) at the scale stage.

People, for human behavior, for our ability to learn, develop and evolve.

My mantra: "Life happens from the inside out"

I met TED and TEDx in my university days. It was passion at first sight and since then I have been a constant consumer of content. When I moved to São Paulo, in 2015, I discovered that there would be a face-to-face event, and I did not miss the opportunity. After this event I applied for volunteering, where I coordinated the experience team with the public, for 3 years. In 2019 I applied to become an organizer of TEDxMacedo, the first TEDx in Guarulhos, the second largest city in the state of São Paulo, with the goal of developing the community and spreading ideas.
