About

PhD in Chemistry (2021) from IME, master’s in Food Science (2013) from UFRJ, and a degree in Biotechnology (2011) from UERJ, with solid experience in Research, Development, and Innovation (R&D+i). Since 2025, I have been working as a Researcher at the Senai Institute of Innovation in Biosynthetics and Fibers (ISI-BF), carrying out projects to add value to Amazonian biodiversity residues. I have strong experience in developing functional ingredients, bioproducts, and sustainable technologies for the food, cosmetics, bioenergy, and green chemistry sectors. Skilled in process development and scaling, methodology optimization, planning and executing technological R&D projects, and analyzing performance indicators (KPIs). Experience in circular economy, bioeconomy, and valorization of agro-industrial and Amazonian residues, developing strategies for full biomass utilization, production of value-added materials, sustainability assessment of processes, and innovation guided by ESG principles. Worked in higher education (UERJ and IME), teaching Chemistry courses and contributing to the training of human resources in Chemistry, Biotechnology, and Food Science. Proficient in project management tools (MS Project), article writing, lab management, team training, and participating in multidisciplinary projects involving universities, research centers, and industry. Knowledgeable in quality and sustainability standards and systems, including ISO 14040, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), RDC 216, and Good Laboratory Practices (GLP).
