I am a PhD Candidate at the Paul H. O’Neill School of Public & Environmental Affairs at Indiana University. With a focus on policy implementation and public management, my research explores citizen interactions with the government in a variety of settings, including in my native country of Brazil. I am interested in topics related to gender, representation, maternal health, and administrative burdens. My most recent work on domestic violence is at the intersection between public management, policy analysis, health, and criminal justice.
