About

I am a passionate Chemical Engineer and Biotechnologist, holding a Ph.D. in Industrial Biotechnology from the Northeast Biotechnology Network (RENORBIO) and a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering from the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS). My academic and professional journey has focused on the intersection of bioprocesses and sustainability, particularly on harnessing agro-industrial waste to produce biosurfactants. I have a strong foundation in statistical methodologies, which I have applied extensively to optimize fermentation processes. I am driven by the challenge of developing eco-friendly and innovative solutions that contribute to a more sustainable future.
