Journalist, South America correspondent for the Guardian.

I created and coordinated projeto Querino (inspired by NYT’s ‘1619 Project’), which was published in the form of a podcast produced by Rádio Novelo and a series of articles in piauí Magazine. The podcast won Brazil’s main journalistic award, the Vladimir Herzog (2023), and and was named one of the 10 best audio journalistic works of 2022 by Premio Gabo.

I wrote projeto Querino’s book, which deepens and expands the content of the podcast, scheduled for release (in Portuguese) in September 2024 by Brazilian publisher Fósforo.

I was a creative manager at Rádio Novelo and was previously a reporter at O Globo, O Estado de S. Paulo, and BandNews FM, and served as a director of the Brazilian Association of Investigative Journalism (Abraji) for 2022-2023.

I created and hosted the narrative podcasts Vidas Negras (a Spotify original produced by Rádio Novelo), which was a finalist at the 2021 Third Coast International Audio Festival; and Negra Voz (for O Globo), winner of the Vladimir Herzog Journalistic Award in 2020.

In 2019, I was a fellow with the International Center For Journalists (ICFJ), in the USA, focused on podcast production.

I was born in Belo Horizonte/Brazil, in 1988, and, since April 2011, live in Rio de Janeiro/Brazil.
