What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values creativity and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth.

I am a motivated and adaptable professional with extensive experience in government and education sectors. My career has been defined by my ability to deliver effective solutions and manage responsibilities in high-pressure, multicultural environments. As a skilled coordinator, I excel in communication, information management, and team leadership, bringing a well-rounded background in academic and administrative operations.

Currently, I serve as the Grad Program Curriculum Coordinator at UCSF, where I am responsible for the development of academic year calendars and curriculum optimization for major graduate programs. My role involves advising faculty and staff, managing course logistics, and ensuring compliance with curriculum requirements. I thrive on creating supportive environments for both students and faculty, utilizing technology to enhance program efficiency.

With a trilingual proficiency in Portuguese, English, and advanced Spanish, I am committed to fostering inclusive and effective communication across diverse groups. I am eager to leverage my skills in a dynamic organization that values creativity and collaboration.
