Internationalization Manager at Tumblr
Marketing and Advertising | São Paulo Area, Brazil, BR

Summary

I currently represent Tumblr in Latin American countries (with a focus in Brazil) and manage the platform's internationalization process. I love my job.

In my previous life I was a Social Media Strategist. I developed, managed and analyzed social media marketing campaigns for brands including DKNY, Louis Vuitton, Net-A-Porter.com, Mattel, Food & Wine and Travel + Leisure magazines, MAC Cosmetics, Avon, Aveda, among others.

I love observing and predicting behavioral and market trends online and constantly strive to be on the cusp of new technologies.

In college, I focused on the study of philosophy, specifically as it pertains to ethics and the mind. Simultaneously, I garnered experience as a cultural neuroscience research assistant.
