Academic Projects.
These two projects reflect my drive to create solutions that not only solve real problems but also strengthen communities through strategy, research, and design to build ideas rooted in purpose, inclusion, and possibility.
Both were developed in academic settings but with a clear intention to generate real-world impact, from empowering vulnerable groups through creative entrepreneurship to helping local cooks thrive while making healthy eating more accessible.
Startup One | FIAP.
Top 30 project (out of 250+) in a national startup competition during my MBA in Brazil. The venture focused on empowering vulnerable communities through entrepreneurship in cultural sectors, using education as a key driver. We applied design thinking, agile methods, and pitched to industry professionals, earning an honorable mention for our impact.
WellPlate | UCW.
Co-creator of WellPlate, a project presented at UCW’s Design Thinking Fair. The initiative connected independent chefs with people facing dietary restrictions or limited time, offering healthy, personalized meals. I contributed to the user research, journey mapping, and was fully responsible for the app design, UX, and all visual materials.
