I am a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst trained in São Paulo, Brazil. I moved to Sydney in 2021, and since then, I have been working on my PhD in Social Sciences at UNSW. Through my research, I propose an integrative approach that integrates psychic aspects with socio-political and cultural narratives related to sexual and gender diversity in Brazil and Australia.

I have 12 years of clinical practice and 8 years of teaching experience. Currently, I am part of the tutoring team for the Clinical Skills course at the Faculty of Medicine and Health at UNSW.
