I grew up in Brazil, where I graduated in Mathematics and got an MBA in Marketing. For over 20 years I have been working with web development, web design and graphic design. My work includes websites and multimedia projects for companies such as Guardian Media Group, Telegraph Media Group, Time Inc and The British Council. I also taught design for five years at one of Brazil's largest private universities, before moving to the UK.

In 2013 I joined TUI Travel PLC and was appointed to work with Gullivers and their diverse IT systems. Though I am a keen spectator of most sports, I'm not very good at any!

In my spare time, I love playing with my amazing two year old son. As for travel, I love islands! Some of my favourites are Santorini (Greece), Menorca (Spain) and Morro de Sao Paulo (Brazil). I also enjoy challenging treks, and loved the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu so much that I had to do it twice!
