I received my Ph.D. in Statistics from the Instituto de Matemática e Estatística at the Universidade de São Paulo (Brazil) in March 2018. My thesis advisor was Florencia Leonardi. During my Ph.D, I spent one year as a visiting student at the Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse (France), where I worked under the supervision of Prof. Aurélien Garivier. During my Ph.D I was funded by FAPESP.

From April 2018 to November 2018, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Universidade de Campinas (Brazil), where I worked with Prof. Nancy Garcia, funded by FAPESP.

From December 2018 to November 2019, I was a postdoctoral visitor in the Department of Statistics at the University of Michigan, where I worked with professor Liza Levina, funded by FAPESP.
