Hometown: Campinas in the State of São Paulo, Brazil
Academic Interests: Palliative Care in Nephrology, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Electrolytes
Hobbies/Interests: As an outdoor enthusiast, I love biking, kayaking, fishing and all board sports including surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding. Mochi, our Shiba Inu, loves to join us on every adventure! Whenever she gets tired, she just hops in her backpack and enjoys the breeze.
Why Penn? I was fortunate enough to learn from enthusiastic and inspiring nephrologists that trained at Penn. Penn Kidney is considered one of the best training programs in the country with endless opportunities to explore different career pathways, yet retains a close-knit, family-like atmosphere, which I find important to achieve my highest potential. To sum up, Philly is a diverse and exciting city to live in, with tremendous amount of outdoor activities, great sports culture, amazing food and a lot of history!
