Born and raised in Rio, Brazil from goy Native American mother and Mediterranean Sepharadi Jewish Italian father. Mature (I still have baby tooth though), good savoir-faire, contemporary (yet a little démodé), body-language reading skilled. I carry myself well working out every day but my IQ exceeds my weight

I am gauche, right-brained, and ambidextrous so I tend to be subjective and creative. Art enthusiast here

I like men just like my wine...

I was a fellow (wrapping up 5 years of postdoctoral) when I realized I have what takes to be an entrepreneur. Since May 2011 I had started a small business and currently in the EdTech field trying a new start-up. I love staggering challenges and working with brilliant people to find creative solutions.

I am a data-junkie. I still write for my postdoctoral adviser and also writing a twisted cookbook. The idea of going back to grad school never leaves my mind

Creating fusion desserts and drinking wine
