São Paulo, Brazil
- Bachelor’s degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences, a Master’s degree in Fermentation Processes from the Federal University of São Carlos (Brazil) and a technical degree in Mechatronics from SENAI (São Paulo). My professional experience is primarily focused on product development, analytical procedures, and process optimization. - I am particularly interested in projects that involve multidisciplinary collaboration and effective communication. I consider myself a responsible and proactive individual, committed to continuous learning and with strong leadership skills. I adapt easily to different environments and build relationships with ease.
- Chromatographic analysis of fermented broth, bromatological analysis of animal feed, and the production of industrially relevant microorganisms such as Azospirillum and Azotobacter (used as agricultural inoculants). - In our most recent consultancy project, we had the opportunity to collaborate with two commercial partners to produce agricultural inoculants for a French multinational specializing in organomineral fertilizers (name withheld due to NDA). In this project, my team and I were responsible for developing the fermentation process and producing enough microbiological material to manufacture 10 tons of agricultural inoculant.
- I co-founded a wholesale trading company in Luanda to import goods from Brazil and supply them to formal retail market players, primarily supermarkets—an area where my business partner brings over 12 years of experience and strong connections in Angola. - In this venture, we developed business strategies and processes, handled bureaucratic requirements, managed inventory, created digital media and communication channels, and participated in sales meetings. - It was an excellent opportunity for professional growth and an incredible experience to explore a promising and dynamic market like Angola.
- In this role, I was part of a team of three scientists. We established a microbial culture collection, cultivated inocula, and conducted experiments on the growth kinetics and nutrient consumption of microorganisms of industrial relevance. - We also carried out a scale-up trial using a 1,000-liter pilot reactor. The results of this six-year R&D project supported the filing of a patent with the Brazilian Intellectual Property Institute (INPI).
