Museum education professional with over ten years of experience

I am Brazilian, born in the state of Rio de Janeiro. I have a degree in Dance Theory from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and I am currently a master's student in Archaeology at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro - National Museum.

I started out as a chemistry student and switched gears to work on a landscape architecture degree, and finally settled on a whole different path of Art History (BA) with an Archaeology minor.

Present projects:

More than 25 years a Roman re-enactor with an interest in all aspects of human life as it was. But as a cheese maker by profession particularly interested in the dairy products of ancient times, both local and Roman.

My career in experimental aspects of ancient ship design and construction started in 1981 with the construction of the late Tim Severin's Sindbad Voyage. Following that my interests expanded to maritime archaeology and ethnography.
