Featured Press
Throughout my career, I’ve been featured in multiple newspapers and magazines. Here is a selection of these opportunities.
IstoÉ - Brazil
IstoÉ, one of the most influential news magazines in Brazil, highlighted my petition for the reduction of taxes on gasoline in my home state, Amazonas. Taxation is responsible for 30% of the product's final price.
The petition received more than 80,000 signatures.
El País - Uruguay
On behalf of Vem Pra Rua, I gave an interview to El País Uruguay about protests that we were leading in all Brazilian states, as the world was interested in our next moves. Weeks later, in December of 2015, I spoke in front of more than 100 thousand protesters during the demonstration in São Paulo.
Estadão - Brazil
Estadão listed me as one of the 50 best-performing candidates on social media for the 2018 election. I was the only runner from the North region of Brazil and also the youngest candidate to be featured.
Reason - U.S.
Reason Magazine commented on my efforts to promote innovation-friendly policies in Amazonas. These actions included launching a campaign for public office, speaking at public hearings, and hosting events for students.
Students for Liberty - U.S.
Students for Liberty (SFL), the largest pro-liberty student organization in the world, included my efforts to bring ride-sharing apps to my home town in its "Success Stories." Uber and similar companies are now a viable alternative to urban mobility in Manaus.
ACrítica - Brazil
ACrítica highlighted the award "Student of the Year" that I received from SFL in Washington, DC. The other nominees were from Israel, Hong Kong, North Korea, Ecuador, and United States. I was the first Brazilian to receive this prize, awarded to SFL's best activist in a given year.
