Short presentation
Executive MBA concluded in Porto Business School (Sep2017-Jan2019), I’m available for new professional challenges in companies where I can contribute with her experience and know-how.
I’m a professional with great experience in software Project Management and lead people. I have been in Brazil for 5 years, where I have performed project management and business development functions. After that, I was manager of the software development and testing projects (nearshore projects) in several industries, automotive, life science and semiconductor, with multicultural teams located in different sites.
In my current role, I lead a software and consulting business unit linked to the healthcare industry, where we market and implement software in healthcare organizations and provide consulting services. I'm also responsible for business development all around the world.
I’m a dedicated professional, responsible and with high competences in the interpersonal relationship. My experience abroad allowed me to develop skills such as autonomy, quick and efficient response to customer requirements. I strive to successfully accomplish all the goals that are proposed, I love challenges and I’m always available to innovate, trying to achieve the success of my team and grow with the company.

About me
My degree is Clinical Psychology, however, after 5 years practicing, I realized that I wanted to explore the business world.
I was delighted with technology and I bet on my career in this area. I became interested in managing people and projects and it was on these roles that I reached my personal and professional goals.
After an international experience, I decided to invest in my education again and with MBA. I got the theoretical basis that I needed for what I already did.
I’m in love with new discoveries, I love to travel, to contact with new cultures and to discover the world. I like to dedicate my free time to do what I want at the moment, among these activities is sports, cooking and being with friends.
