Heeeyy!! My name is Maria Alejandra, you can call me Ale, Mari or Mapy.

I believe everuone has a huge potencial inside that sometimes we dont dare or we dont know how to see and bring to the surface. I believe a lot in people, yet I have a natural talent to think weir, random and successful ways to escape from any danger situation; thing that has helped me several times trough life xD

I have lived in 4 countries, this has gave me the present of flexibility and adventure. I consider myself a pacient women and I appreciate humor, laughter and silence a lot.

I feel the need to be in nature very often to conect with myself and with the world. I live near 2 parks in Sao Paulo wich helps me to do it often.

I work with social impact, managing projects that hire me. The last one was a very cool opportunity I had to be Latam Leader Project of 2 Education projects with focus in Women Empowerment in 4 countries in latinoamerica.

Besides that I founded in Brazil an ONG calles Fly Educaçao, we promote leadership trough socio-emocional competences in public schools, here is the site in case you wanna take a look: www.flyeducacao.org
