Goals and interests

Career goal

My dream job is to have leadership roles within the UN, science-related organizations or even government positions. My dream is to support vulnerable communities by enhancing their quality of life and environment, while also protecting their rights and addressing their essential needs. I had the opportunity to accompany a government project aimed at raising awareness about mercury toxicity in fish along the Amazon River. Seeing how this affected indigenous communities, whose main food source was also poisoning them, inspired me to dedicate my career in science, policy-making and management to create solutions for vulnerable populations worldwide.
