My story
Where this calling comes from
I was born in Joinville, Santa Catarina (Brazil), with a very curious personality. I have always loved studying, exploring the world and nature, which led me to my degree in Geology from the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR, 2010), followed by a master's degree (UFPR, 2012) and a PhD in the same field, earning my doctorate from two universities (UFPR and Université de Montpellier — 2018, France).
Since I was young, I have been passionate about foreign languages and travel. Besides English and French, I have also studied German and Tibetan. One of my dreams was to see the world, and geology was what first took me there: I traveled through several countries in South America, Europe and North America, and lived abroad for a few periods (France 2015-2016 and Canada 2022-2023).
I have always sought to better understand the world, which led me to several fields of study, among them astrology and tarot, which I study out of a personal interest in symbols. This endless curiosity about the world made me want to get to know it from other perspectives, which developed through travel, living in foreign cultures, meeting new people and a great deal of study. Over the years, with plenty of hands-on experience, this background took shape in more than 4 years of teaching English and French to students of all ages.
Today, these passions come together in a single purpose: guiding people. By teaching English and French, my work is to open paths and broaden horizons.
