I’m Felipe, currently living in Chicago and pursuing my MBA at the University of Chicago School of Business - a.k.a Booth. I’m also a Consultant at BCG, where I have worked for 4 years having incredible experiences in Rio de Janeiro, Dubai and Berlin before coming to Booth.

Getting to where I am was definitely not a trivial task. I grew up in São Paulo in a very humble family that could not afford to me good education. Yet, having to start working at the age of 16 to support my family, I managed to study Computer Engineering at the best university in Brazil and Latin America becoming a 1st student generation.

As a mentor, I have had the privilege of guiding and supporting several individuals in their professional and personal growth. One of the most impactful mentoring experiences I had was working with a low-income computer science student through the ISMART platform, helping him land a job at a renowned game development company.

This mentoring experience taught me that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a profound impact on someone's life, and that mentorship can be a powerful tool for empowering individuals and helping them reach their full potential.

If I can be a part of your journey, just as many have been for me, I would be thrilled!

Very open to hear anything you want to share. Also, what works well for me may not work for you. So my commitment is to ensure that you find your own answers through our conversations.

As your thinking partner, I will help you define your goal first, then we will explore situations and examples together to make the problem more tangible. Just as importantly, we will think together about choices and consequences in order to identify the associated trade-offs. Finally, we'll consider what actions need to be taken and how to take them to help you achieve your goals.
