I am a high school graduate who is interested in STEM and creating an impact. I enjoy studying astrophysics and the mysteries of the universe, and hope to develop and share research in this field. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and writing about the human psychology. With my Talks, I always aim to help others understand themselves better and make a positive change in the world!

Gabriela Kunii

Student

I was born in Olinda, a city from the northeast in Brazil, but my accent reveals that I lived most part of my life in Rio de Janeiro! Although I am a bit shy, that never stopped me from meeting new people or playing so much as a kid. After living in so many different places, I saw how culture changes from place to place and also studied a bit about other languages too. Today, I enjoy traveling and learning other languages became a hobby for me.

Heloísa Ziolkowski

Student

I'm a Brazilian girl that have a passion about questioning things that seem obvious. I was born in the island of Florianopolis, in Brazil's south and have a tendency to like discussions. I also love animals, and those two aspects are quite clear on my talk. I'm on my 1st high school year and still finding out what I'm good at, but I find that history and ballet can be considered my passions, of course, both behind creating disagreements. Sometimes I don't even agree with what I'm defending, but it's really interesting to put a question mark on things most of us deem obvious.

Sandra Trevisan

Nutritionist

Sou nutricionista, apaixonada pela profissão mas também por viagens e aventuras. Penso que podemos e devemos buscar o conhecimento não apenas pelo estudo mas também através da prática e da experiência de conhecer o mundo, sua diversidade de culturas e costumes. Isso nos motivou, a mim e meu marido para realizarmos uma circunavegação. Dessa experiência incrível levamos sempre conosco os ensinamentos que nos transformaram a forma de ver e encarar novos desafios. E a paixão pelo mar e pelo estilo de vida nos fez optar pela simplicidade vida a bordo novamente.
