" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because I believe in the power of collaboration between the public and third sectors to create lasting impact in education, healthcare and other shared and important fields on people's life. I am passionate about using creative problem-solving to develop sustainable projects that can address critical issues, such as improving school enrollment and reducing dropout rates in latin america countries including Brazil.
