Past 7 years of professional experience

Had a myriad of interesting experiences and challenging projects

 Started working at the age of 15, where I became a contributing editor to AVRO dx – an online English-Portuguese-English Dictionary –, having its database 100% formatted.

 Worked at a Federal Bank for 2 years as an intern and became one of the references for training and onboarding, leading new employees during their first weeks of working directly with customers.

 Invited to work again at the company where I got my first job, but with a different approach: testing the dictionary platform as an end-user, reporting issues and requesting features.

 Completed the internship season while studying at the University: exploring the accounting field, operating the entire financial routine of a company, and even being hired by the University itself.

 Worked in all subdivisions of a financial department in different companies, such as in the fashion industry and in a car dealership.

 Became a member of the Regional Business Administration Council and acted as an independent consultant, conducting audits, providing financial advice and reports, and improving financial management in general.
