Yes, I currently lead multiple STEM-related projects at Lagos Data Intelligence, a company I co-founded. We focus on data analysis, social listening, and public interest technology to support evidence-based decision-making in both the public and private sectors. One of our ongoing projects monitors public discourse around science and technology policies in Brazil to inform more inclusive and data.

ABOUT ME

I am a sociologist with a Master’s degree in Public Policy and Government from Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), and over 10 years of experience leading data analysis and digital monitoring projects focused on public policy, government relations, and social listening. I am currently the Chief Data Officer and co-founder of Lagos Data Intelligence, a company specialized in analyzing public discourse, digital trends, and political behavior. Throughout my career, I have worked at the intersection of technology, data, and social impact — developing strategies for governments, companies, and civil society to make better decisions through data. I am also deeply engaged in initiatives that promote data governance, digital democracy, and gender equity in STEM.
