About me

I've been a Wikimedian since 2016, editing as a volunteer and Wikimedian-in-Residence using the GiFontenelle account. I'm also a Wiki Movimento Brasil (WMB) member and, in 2020, was the Projects Manager for the user group using the GiFontenelle (WMB) account.

I’m very active on Wikipedia in Portuguese, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata, mainly carrying out activities with collections from GLAM institutions or with Education programs. I'm also an open knowledge activist, as a Creative Commons Global Network member and as the Wikimedia Coordinator and Open GLAM Coordinator for Creative Commons Brasil. I often plan a lot of events to decrease the Gender Gap on Wikipedia as well.

I'm also a journalist, historian, and educator who enjoys art and English literature very much. I'm based in Sao Paulo, Brazil (GMT-3).

My work

In November 2020, I joined the Wikimedia Foundation to work as a Senior GLAM-Wiki Specialist (part-time, contractor). Now, I'm a full-time Program Officer, GLAM and Culture, carrying out GLAM-Wiki activities with GLAM institutions (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) for the Culture & Heritage team.

Disclaimer: I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, so edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
