About me
I am an experienced and multifaceted legal professional, combining in-depth knowledge of international law, climate change, global policy, ESG, carbon markets, forestry law, and solid experience across the public, private, and international sectors. I have delivered results for private, public, and international clients and stakeholders.
I nurture a strong passion for the environment, an excellent ability to solve problems, including providing legal, research, and policy analysis, and an ability to integrate academic knowledge with strategic thinking. I bring with me professional and academic experience in the United States and the practice of environmental law in Brazil, representing clients in Brazilian higher and lower courts for 14’ years.
My research interests focus on international financial institutions redress and accountability mechanisms, human rights protection, sustainable development, illegal logging, climate change, biodiversity, sustainable land management, international trade, fair use of technology applied to tackling environmental issues, and investment.
Additionally, I love working with people and communicating across cultures and multiple languages to build a common understanding of the global legal and policy system. I am also experienced in teaching and lecturing on international environmental law, sustainable development, and climate change matters.
