About me

I am an epidemiologist whose primary research interest is to tackle care inequities. Currently, I am a Research Associate in the Department of Sociological Studies at the University of Sheffield/UK.

Previously, I was a Research Fellow at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC/Brazil) with two projects focused on mapping racial and intersectional inequities in healthcare. These were funded by The National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq/Brazil) and Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES/Brazil).

I am also a data enthusiast. I worked as a Data Analyst for the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ/Brazil). I have taught basic to advanced statistics (R and Stata) and quantitative methods for both undergraduates and graduates in Brazil and the UK.

I hold a PhD in Epidemiology from University College London (UCL/UK), and a Master's in Public Health from the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC/Brazil).
