Bio

Hello! I'm a young Brazilian woman interested in expanding my knowledge on many topics, such as arts, philosophy, culture, education and science. I'm also an independent creative content creator and artist, managing an youtube channel that is listed in the links section of this profile. I also work as a freelance translator and volunteer educator regarding topics such as theater and video making (working with few individuals right now, but targeting to form larger groups in the future).

I'm passionate about

Good ideas that can help each individual change their lives for better, thus changing the world for better, from the tiniest daily practices to the globally impacting actions. I'm interested in spreading these ideas and helping people, especially the ones who battle with depression or the unbelievable pressure that all generations are suffering today towards perfection and competition. I believe that a better world can only be created through integration, empathy, collaboration and equality.

An idea worth spreading

"It's not the harsh, traumatic or horrible events themselves you should fear the most in life, but your own unwillingness to control your reaction to those events. Ultimately, it's your capacity to take full responsibility for your thoughts that will dictate the course and growth of not just you, but our entire world". - Albert Hobohm Found in the lecture: "How to stop your thoughts from controlling your life", by Albert Hobohm, in TEDxKTH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29Vj0-TVHiQ

Areas of expertise

The TED story

So far, I have mostly watched a lot of TED and TEDx Talks and shared them with my social circle. However, now I'm now focused on engaging more and actively helping the TED community to spread its ideas - especially with translation, if possible, so other Brazilian natives that can't understand content in English get to now this amazing content.
