I've written for outlets like CNN and National Geographic – you can read selected articles here.
My literary non-fiction book Pequenas Resistências: Ideias sobre jornalismo, utopias e amor público was published last December by Gradiva.
My short story collection Absolutamente Felizes ao Sol won a literary award for its "sharp insight and sunlit clarity, with a fluid and poetic language through which the hardships of everyday life and feminine worlds are conveyed with quiet yet resonant force". It will be published in 2025 by Nos.
I’m currently working on a collection of essays on writing, feminism, and the idiosyncrasies of local versus global culture. I’m also pursuing a PhD in Sociology, focusing on the relationship between literature and inequality.
Influences and trivia
I get shivers from the way Joan Didion strips writing down to the bone, I like the near-silent humour of Jacques Tati and I like the ideas of Thomas Piketty and Mariana Mazucatto. I grew up listening to songs of the carnation revolution before I could make sense of them, and the voice of David Attenborough takes me back to Sunday mornings watching BBC Wildlife.
I like big ideas living in small structures, and I like people who experiment and believe that this thing called the common good exists and sometimes cause sightings.
I have a habit of dancing until my feet hurt, I’m interested in everything culture, and I stubbornly want to understand what it means to live in a globalised world.
I like sunny days and dark chocolate.
I’m that original.
