I am multidisciplinary professional who has achieved several skills in various areas.
First as a manager of IT resources, I have developed a capacity for closing the gap between users and technology under a human-oriented approach.
I believe that human essence flows from the sensory capacity of music, art and movement. Because of this sensibility, I have dedicated over a decade of my life to the practice and research of Capoeira, the foremost Afro-Brazilian cultural expression, and within it I had found an art form to imprint my feelings, talents and skills.
Taking advantage of the knowledge about Brazilian history and culture, I became a professional tour guide implementing narrative skills oriented to intellectually curious travelers to offer personalized experiences based on their needs and love to learn. I founded my own cultural tourism company in Brazil under the name of Capoeira Paraty.
Recently, after the COVID-19 outbreak I have been putting together, with the help from other tourism professionals, a project called Impact Travel Collective in which we are intending to aggregate and offer an online platform for guides, tours and experiences with positive impact under the Triple Bottom Line perspective and based on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals starting in the Latin America region.
