Bem-vindo to my website!
I’m a doctoral candidate at the College of Media & Communication at Texas Tech University, currently working on research that explores how emotions can motivate people to engage in political conversations.
My doctoral work is funded by a joint fellowship from the Fulbright Program and the Brazilian state agency for higher education, Capes, as well as several scholarships from Texas Tech. My advisor is Dr. Bryan McLaughlin.
I was born and raised in Brazil, where I studied at the University of Minas Gerais. Outside of academia, I enjoy watching movies and hiking with my partner and our little morky, Diesel.
