ABOUT ME

Professionally I would describe myself as an English grad student from Brazil preparing for a year abroad as a Fulbright scholar in Ann Arbor, MI. On a more personal level I would say that I'm somewhat shy, and yet a very funny person, mostly on the sarcastic side (as is often the case with shy people).

Interests

My passions include literature, travelling, LGBT politics, running, and beer. Not necessarily in that order. Being a grad student takes most of my time, but I like to dedicate myself to friends and family whenever possible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing Wayna Picchu, in Peru, was a remarkable moment for me. I guess the idea of being awestruck is very related to nature for me, so I would have to cite hiking in the Taroko Gorge, in Taiwan, as another remarkable moment.
