I am currently a post-doctoral fellow in the Project "Chemical and Biological Characterization of the Pelagic System of the Santos Basin: Characterization of chelonians and seabirds in the Santos Basin". I am a biologist, Ph.D. in Ecology and Natural Resources from ‘Universidade Estadual do Norte Fluminense Darcy Ribeiro’ – UENF. I developed my master's degree working with the diet of juvenile Green sea turtles on the Rio de Janeiro State. My Ph.D. concerning the knowledge of artisanal fishermen of Rio de Janeiro State about sea turtles and their interplay with that. I am broadly interested in ecology and conservation biology, targeting trophic ecology, marine pollution, ethnobiology, ethnoecology, and environmental education, mainly with marine turtles.
