Bio:

I am an ABD student in the PhD program at USC, specializing in 20th-century Brazilian history. My primary research focus is on the local history of Sorriso, a small town located in the Amazonian region. My dissertation delves into the transformative development of Sorriso during the 1980s, exploring how it evolved to become a major soybean producer globally. Through my research, I aim to uncover the socio-economic and environmental impacts of this agricultural boom and contribute to a deeper understanding of the region's historical trajectory.


Challenge the conventional. Create the exceptional. No Limits.
