About Me

I Believe That The ONLY Way We Can Change Brasil (And The World!) is by Giving Access to EXCELLENT QUALITY Education to Everyone, Everywhere.

My mission is to help the Revolution in Education for all in the XXI century :-)

ABOUT ME

I'm a passionate entrepreneur, started some businesses and learned a lot. Now I'm a marketing expert and consultant, planning my next big thing ;-)

Love to meet people from all backgrounds. Have helped developing the startup ecossystem in my city organizing events and workshops.

Love to make new friends and have fun!

I'm a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu blue belt and love this sacred martial art.

Learn languages is one of my hobbies, I studied a little bit of german, I'm not very good though... And I've studied french also.
Feel free to ask me more :D

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an open person for religions and beliefs. I was educated my hole life in a catholic church but I understand that religion is a human way to try to explain a higher power. You can call it God, Energy, Universe. For me it's all the same thing that unites everything together. I respect all religions and love to learn about it.

I believe in making good to ppl. U don't really need religion, religion is the guide. They tell you how you should be. But if you know you must be a good person, that is fine for me. If you are good to other ppl, if you love them, don't make bad things, that's awesome. That is my philosophy.
