About

I have spent thirteen years at Bumble Inc. (formerly Badoo) running operations for Portuguese-speaking markets across three countries and two continents — Brazil, Angola and Mozambique — on-site in London from 2013 to 2018, then fully remote from Brazil.

My work sits where trust & safety, customer experience and marketing operations meet: leading a multilingual cybersafety team of more than twenty agents across seven languages, investigating high-risk cases alongside Legal and law enforcement, owning the quality of everything published in my markets, and covering interim management for Community Operations and Localization when it was needed.

Alongside that I have run the full project lifecycle for global clients — Samsung, HBO, Warner Bros., Sanofi, Bayer, Roche, LATAM Airlines and Visa — negotiating scope, deadlines and budgets with vendors worldwide. The through line is the same one every operations role describes: absorbing complexity so the people around me do not have to.
