About

I have built my career in technology over 25+ years in Silicon Valley. As a venture capitalist I focus on seed-stage applied AI investments in Digital Health, Automation (cars and robots) and Enterprise. Some of my key successes are Oak Street Health (sold for $10.6B), Absci (IPO $2.1B), nuTonomy (sold for $450M) and Misfit Wearables (sold for $260M). My operational background is in product and analytics at my own startup and at Google (joined pre-IPO and learned through hypergrowth). I was born and raised in Brazil, speak 3 languages natively and 2 others fluently, and have lived significantly in 5 different parts of the world. I have also cofounded and been leading a non-profit since 2000, we crowd-funded and built a high school lab, a library and a hospital in rural India serving a community of 100,000 people, here is a bit more of the story: I have spoken more about my work in technology and in non-profit at 3 TEDxes (San Francisco, São Paulo, Vitória) and at the Global Competitiveness Forum (Riyadh), and been selected as a young leader (Global Shaper) by the World Economic Forum (Davos). I live close to carbon-neutral, am a 70.3 Ironman finisher and a Boston Marathon Qualifier
