I hold master's and bachelor’s degrees in economics from the most renowned economics school in Brazil, EPGE Brazilian School of Economics and Finance at Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV EPGE) . As a post-graduate student selected among a national pool of applicants, I completed the Advanced Course on the Evaluation of Public Policies and Social Programs for 140 hours with the Itaú Social Foundation in January 2016. I have spent over six years in research and consultancy, particularly in regulatory economics for utilities and infrastructure.In my current role as a data analyst at the Adelaide Rural Clinical School and the Discipline of General Practice, I have had the incredible opportunity to dive into the world of health and primary care research here at the University. It's been an enriching experience, and I've been working on various projects, ranging from the data management of Medicine Insight database to statistical analysis of chronic conditions in the Australian primary care setting.
