At top companies like Google, Intel and Microsoft, I have been managing relationships between

companies and the Business & Technical Communities for around 8 years, establishing a new way to

nurture collaboration, innovation, support and advocacy. This work is based not only in Technology, but

also on the concepts and dynamics of human network relationships and social media channels.

The vast experience implementing Technology in the corporate world - from IT Infrastructure and

Network Solutions to Advanced Digital Imaging Processing Software - brought a deep understanding of

Business Strategies and Processes, as well as a strong knowledge about Project Management.

I lived for 4 years in England and Italy, working as a Software Developer. Besides the valuable technical

experience acquired, the strong contact with different cultures got me to a higher level of professional

and personal maturity.

Continuous activity as a Professor and Speaker in big events demand and improve first-class

communications and presentation skills.

Abroad Experience

United Kingdom (Birmingham)

I have worked for 1.5 years in England. The attractive market, demanding for high technology projects (software development) and the language improvement were my main motivations.

Italy (Milan, Monza)

I have worked for more than 2 years in Italy. Having Italian parents and a big interest on a life experience in Europe were big inspirations for this valuable challenge.

Professional Experience

Google Business Group Lead

Google Business Groups (GBGs) are run by independent business professionals aiming to improve the local business ecosystem with Google Technologies. GBGs form a worldwide Community and I am responsible for coordinating this network in Brazil. My initial challenge at Google was to revitalize the GBGs. After 7 months empowering and motivating 100+ GBG Managers, we raised the number of GBGs from 13 to 26. Our activity index, measuring # of events, attendees, feedback and success cases went from 479 in Q2 to 1,595 in Q3 (+232%) and 2,054 in Q4 (+328%), bringing Brazil from #14 to #3 in the worldwide ranking. GBGs delivered 52 events to 4,053 attendees in 2014.

I was also responsible for all the logistics of Launchpad, a 1-week event held in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, bringing mentors from Israel, USA, Switzerland, Japan and Mexico to boost 50 Startups as part of the Google Startup Launch Program.

Organization and participation in events is a key activity, so I have been a frequent speaker in events like:

● Google I/O Extended São Paulo 2014 ● Social Media Week São Paulo 2014 – delivering an Android Wear Design Sprint ● 3 editions of Startup Weekend (São José, Goiânia and Campinas) as a judge ● 1st and 2nd Entrepreneur Women Conference – a GBG Women initiative ● Several GBG events with over 100 attendees, including 3 Design Sprint Workshops

Community Manager & Digital Marketing Lead

The main mission at Intel Brazil was to kick start the Community related activities at the Developer Relations Division, leading the Servers and High Performance Computing product line. With a very small team we introduced Intel in the Software Development ecosystem, sponsoring and delivering lectures at key events like Intel Developer Forum, The Developers Conference (SP, SC and GO), The App Date, FISL (RS), Intel Software Day, Intel Software Conference (SP and RJ) and others.

By delivering training on Intel Xeon Phi (a 61-core Intel coprocessor) and Touch & Sensor programming on Windows, developers and ISVs were enabled to deliver great software on Intel Platforms.

Since Q4’13 I also perform the role of Digital Marketing Lead, driving online campaigns (AdWords & Facebook Ads) and Intel Software’s Social Media presence.

I received the following Awards for individual and group contributions:

● ESS Annual Award Top ’13 LAR Enterprise Server Win – Q4’13 ● Department/Prestige Award - Results Orientation - BR Intel SW Conference - Q3’13 ● Division Recognition Award - For Implementing the 1st Brazilian Manycore Lab - Q2’13 ● Division Recognition Award - For Driving Involvement in FISL14 - Q2’13 ● Division Recognition Award - Worldwide Ultrabook App Labs - Q4’12 ● Group Recognition Award - For Executing a Successful Brazil 2012 IDF Event - Q3’12 ● Intel Developer Forum Outstanding Speaker (Top 3 speaker) - May 2012

At MCS (Microsoft Consulting Services), my role was to manage Projects involving Microsoft Technologies adoption (6 years). I was the Enterprise Strategy Consultant for Nestlé, mapping Business Needs to Technical Solutions and ensuring a smooth operation environment jointly with the Global Nestlé Team.
