She holds a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from the Federal University of Uberlândia (UFU). She completed an internship in Energisa's Innovation department, focusing on vehicle chargers and demand response. She is currently an Innovation Analyst in Energisa's Innovation Division, working on projects related to electric mobility, distributed energy resources (DERs), ancillary services, and demand response. Its scope of work includes dynamic pricing management, power control (charge profile), criteria for installing charging stations, and analysis of charger performance data. She conducted studies on the behavior of vehicle chargers in the distribution network; her thesis proposed a methodology for identifying patterns in active and reactive power load curves at an actual charging station, enabling power flow studies in OpenDSS to assess impacts such as voltage variations and transformer loading. In addition to continuing to work in the field of electric mobility, the company is currently conducting studies on the sizing of battery energy storage systems (BESS) aimed at load forecasting and assessing the support capacity of substations over the years.
