Summary

I currently reside in Brazil, but in January, I will be heading to Boston for an intensive English language exchange program to enhance my language skills. My goal is to prepare for a permanent move to the United States next year, where I aim to seek new opportunities for growth and professional development.


I have extensive experience in business management and am a co-owner of three companies, two of which are in the solar energy sector. In these companies, we operate comprehensively, handling everything from the design and installation of photovoltaic projects to the system’s certification with utility companies. Throughout my career, we have successfully executed over 1,500 photovoltaic projects, serving more than 1,000 satisfied clients. My objective is to bring this expertise and experience to the U.S. market, contributing with sustainable and innovative solutions in the energy sector.
