Facilitator, business analyst and developer. One path, three areas.
20+ years between warehouse floor, meeting room, and code. From Brazil to Belgium. The thread hasn't changed: go deep on the problem, understand the whole system, and make change fit the routine of whoever operates.
How I got here
2004
I started in the warehouse: process, waiting, rework. I moved into planning and continuous improvement, and my interest in what stalls work led me to people: facilitation, mediation and Nonviolent Communication.
2017
I founded Colibri with my partner: courses, a publishing house and the Grok game, which passed 20,000 copies. With no tech team, I started building the systems the company needed.
2022
I moved to Lier, Belgium. I keep working in all three areas: people, processes and technology. Remote, in person here, or hybrid across Europe.
I work best where there's autonomy, dialogue, and a real problem, not where the answer arrived before the question
What energizes me
Ordering complex processes and finding where time and money leak
Improving people's relationship with technology and with each other
Building tools and flows with impact on whoever operates day to day
Sharing what I've learned: workshops, training, listening
What sustains my work
Human-centered technology and ethical AI
Nonviolent communication and psychological safety
Transparency and an open-source mindset
Autonomy and shared responsibility
Where I don't work
Diagnosis without listening to operations
The weapons industry or negative social impact
Rigid hierarchy with no room for initiative
Profit above human connection and well-being
