Professor associado - UFOPA

I am a biologist, with MSc degree in Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation at UESC
(2014) and Ph.D. in Ecology at UFRJ (2018). Currently, I am an associate professor
at UFOPA, living and working in central Amazonia. My background involves the
study of human-nature interactions, aquatic ecology and historical ecology. I am also
interested in many aspects related to the ecology and conservation of reef fishes,
and the management of marine wildlife tourism and small-scale fisheries.
