We are building CoGrader to put AI in the hands of teachers, helping them save 80% of time spent grading (improving their lives), provide personalized feedback and grades to students, and shorten the overall feedback loop on written assignments (improving learning outcomes).CoGrader is backed by UC Berkeley, Maze, and angels — including unicorn founders and the Account Director for Education at OpenAI.CoGrader impacts hundreds of thousands of students, having graded over 500,000 assignments.Feel free to ping me if you want to shape the future of education together! —————My friends describe me as a curious human, entrepreneur, globetrotter and storyteller.I run high on energy and have the passion and perseverance to chase long-term and meaningful goals. I'm invariably positive and my inner drive spikes when faced with challenges.—————I am a connector between the USA, Latin America and Europe, bringing experience from business development and strategy for startups, investment funds and corporates.Before CoGrader, I helped build Justos, the largest-ever Series A start-up in Latin America, backed by Ribbit Capital, Kaszek, SoftBank, GGV as well as 8 unicorn CEOs. Joining as an early employee, I focused on launching the B2B2C partnerships channel and closed the first 7 deals, including with the largest private company in LatAm, and reported directly to the CEO. I started my career in McKinsey’s banking practice in Medellin, and then as an investment analyst at LBV Asset Management in London. I joined the largest Portuguese conglomerate, Sonae Holding Group, which has business units and investments in almost every sector, including tech, real estate and hospitality. I supported the Sonae Executive Committee on corporate strategy and portfolio analysis, including leading the venture development of Sonae Food4Future, a €1Bn private equity fund focused on AgTech. In my spare time, I helped kick off Vida Capital, a €50M first-time hospitality real estate fund, and turned around a hospitality SaaS business, growing revenue 5x in 9 months (from a 2-year decline in sales) to reach breakeven, by redesigning the B2B sales process.I'm a fellow of Sandbox and Sigma Squared, communities of leaders and entrepreneurs who are on a mission to create positive change in the world. I graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor in Economics from Porto University.
