I obtained my medical degree from the Federal University of Minas Gerais, with specialization in Pediatrics from the Minas Gerais State Hospital Foundation, as well as a Master’s and a PhD from UFU. I built my academic career in the Medicine Program at this same institution, working in teaching, research, extension, academic management, and clinical practice. In teaching, I participated in several undergraduate courses linked to the Department of Pediatrics (DEPED), as well as in lato sensu graduate programs, serving as a preceptor in the theoretical activities of the Medical Residency Program. I also completed numerous technical and pedagogical training courses in the fields of Pediatrics and Education. In research, I was the author and co-author of publications in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings and presented several scientific works in the form of posters and oral presentations. I supervised students in undergraduate research programs, academic leagues, extracurricular internships, as well as medical residents and specialization course final projects. I served on selection committees, public examinations for academic positions, and evaluation boards for undergraduate final projects, master’s dissertations, doctoral theses, and qualifying examinations. I carried out extension activities in the areas of primary and professional education, health promotion through home visits, oncology training, accident prevention, telemedicine, and dengue prevention initiatives. In academic management, I served as Coordinator of the Medical Residency Committee (COREME) of the Department of Pediatrics, Coordinator of the Internship Committee, and Coordinator of the Structuring Teaching Staff Committee. I collaborated on internal administrative, electoral, and curriculum reform committees, as well as on some committees external to UFU. I served as Acting Deputy Director of the School of Medicine and as Substitute Coordinator of COREME and DEPED. I prepared technical and advisory reports for the School of Medicine Council and the Medicine Program Coordination. I also worked in clinical care activities alongside students, interns, and residents in outpatient clinics, inpatient wards, and the emergency department of the UFU University Hospital. I believe I have made an effective contribution to the education of numerous professionals, consistently performing my duties with responsibility, commitment, and ethics, and reaffirming the transformative role of education in society.

Here, my academic trajectory is not a straight line, but lines that tangle into a winding river, full of tributaries, still waters, and rapids. The bureaucratic data—such as education, publications, and advising—are the riverbanks, shaping the landscape, while lived experiences are the flow of water that rocks the memories. They could also be the steep cobblestone streets whose alleys form paths bordered by houses, buildings, and other landscapes. This memorial is not just a document, but a way of recounting myself, recognizing myself, and celebrating the many encounters in my life. In every stitch and every pause, I sought inspiration in Clarice, who turns the minutiae of daily life into the multiplicity of a scene. In the weave of affections and the landscape of thought, I wished for the poetry of Adélia Prado, who finds the sacred in the ordinary and, in simple gestures, the dimension of miracles. And, finally, I wished to have a bit of Guimarães Rosa’s wisdom, from whom I learned that life is a crossing, that the sertão is the world, and that, in the end, the true story is not at the point of arrival but in the beauty and courage of each step taken.This is, then, the celebration of an academic life embroidered, thread by thread, where the stories of so many dear people intertwine with the journey of a teaching career not always valued. And in the act of telling, I perform myself into the story, unfolding. I avoided repeating information available on my Lattes CV or turning into numbers the publications, advising, and projects that only make sense within their context of production and realization. I must answer the bureaucratic demands and the academic ritual of proving that, throughout this path, I fulfilled the expected duties of teaching, research, outreach, and administration. I chose to list, in footnotes, the articles and other references that bear witness to this collective work.I conclude this recounting of entangled threads with a landscape less provisional—though far from definitive—that conveys a few certainties, such as the importance of believing in the collective, the recognition that the University remains a space for producing and inventing possible lives, and that insisting is worthwhile.
