Brasília, Federal District, Brazil
With more than 28 years of professional experience in corporate public affairs, my unwavering passion lies in championing sustainable businesses that drive positive impact on the environment, communities, and society. Throughout my career in highly regulated and capital-intensive industries, I have excelled advancing public policies, forging partnerships with stakeholders, and shaping strategic agendas by engaging with a diverse array of key players, including government officials, policymakers, regulators, unions, decision makers, NGOs, trade associations, and the media. My ability to navigate corporate crises, mitigate political risks, crisis management and stay attuned to civil society trends has earned me a reputation for safeguarding and enhancing the positive reputation, representation and business development for Fortune 500 companies. My educational background includes an MBA in State, Government, and Public Policy, complemented by several certifications in lobbying, leadership, and negotiations from Ivy League schools. My professional accomplishments have been honored with several distinguished recognitions, including being featured in the 2009 Miami-Dade College "Opportunity Changes Everything" campaign, receiving the Maua Merit Medal, and being elected four times as one of the Most Admired Institutional Relations Professionals in Latin America (2020, 2021, 2022, and 2024). In 2025, I was further recognized by being inducted into the lifelong Hall of Fame. Through my expert leadership and relentless commitment to sustainability and positive social impact, I aim to continue fostering partnerships between businesses and governments to bring about meaningful change on a global scale.
