Initiatives
Communities and events I've helped build over the years.
Product.io· 2014
An invite-only community I helped build in 2014 to bring together Brazil's early product managers, helping create awareness around product management as a distinct career at a time when the role was still emerging in the local tech scene. Later the community was incorporated to PM3.com.br.

Tropical On Rails· 2012
Tropical Ruby, later known as Tropical on Rails, is a Brazilian Ruby / Ruby on Rails conference created to bring together developers, founders, and the Rails community around talks, networking, and knowledge sharing. I was a founder and organizer of the 2012, 2014, and 2015 editions.
Manguezal· 2011
Manguezal is a startup community from Recife created to connect founders, developers, investors, and entrepreneurs, helping strengthen the local tech ecosystem through events, networking, knowledge sharing, and support for early-stage startups.
Startup Weekend· 2011
I volunteered as a facilitator, helping guide participants through the process and supporting teams as they turned ideas into early-stage ventures. Startup Weekend is a 54-hour entrepreneurship event, originally supported by the Kauffman Foundation and later by Techstars.
