About

I am currently an undergraduate student in Animal Science (Zootecnia) at the Federal University of Lavras (UFLA), Brazil. Throughout my degree, I have gained academic and practical experience in animal production, nutrition, agriculture, and biological sciences. I completed an internship at Cantinho da Roça Agro Comercial, an agricultural business in Brazil, where I gained practical experience with agricultural products, animal feed, inventory control, product receiving and storage, customer service, and daily operational activities. I have also been involved in undergraduate research at UFLA, working in a laboratory environment with biological materials, enzymatic assays, sample preparation, measurements, and experimental procedures. My research experience includes work involving papain and its potential applications in animal production. In addition, I have participated in NECTA (Poultry Science Study Group) at UFLA, where I was initially a member and later served as Administrative Coordinator. This experience strengthened my knowledge of poultry production while also developing my teamwork, organization, communication, and leadership skills. I am a responsible, adaptable and quick learner, and I am particularly interested in gaining practical international experience in agriculture and animal production. I am available for a temporary internship from January to March 2027, during my university break, and I am motivated to improve my English through both professional and daily experiences.
