About Me
I am a researcher and impact entrepreneur dedicated to expanding AI Safety, Responsible AI, and scientific entrepreneurship across the Global South. I hold a PhD in Technological Innovation, a Postdoc in Scientific Entrepreneurship, and an MSc in Computer Science.
I am the founder & CEO of Inovacia, the creator of TrilhAI (a free bilingual Responsible AI learning platform), and a co-founder of AI Safety Brazil, where I help build the national ecosystem for AI Safety through community coordination, events, and collaboration with researchers and universities.
I completed the AI Governance and AGI Strategy courses at BlueDot Impact, and I also organize BlueDot’s AI Safety meetups in Brazil, supporting the growth of new researchers entering the field.
Over the past years, I have raised more than R$ 35 million (~US$ 7M) for AI and innovation projects, working with universities, startups, public research institutes, innovation agencies, and industry partners.
My mission is to create pathways so researchers in emerging economies can contribute to global AI Safety, alignment research, and frontier-risk reduction.
