One of her memorable experiences was in Thailand, where she conducted a series of ethnographic studies in the streets and homes of Bangkok. Thais has a very unique background: she started her career as a biochemist/pharmacist and is highly experienced on both technical (R&D) and business sides (Marketing/Sales). She understands the importance of collaborating and liaising with many cross-functional teams and partners. It is her multi-cultural background and international travel that facilitated her existing network with research partners in many of the markets she has worked. Born and raised in Brazil, also a U.S. citizen, Thais is fluent in 3 languages and has moderated groups in English, Portuguese and Spanish (with over 1300 groups & in-depth interviews). Thais is a trained and experienced facilitator (a member of the Creative Education Foundation - CEF/CPSI), and her passion for innovation goes where creative research methods meets the latest technologies. Thais shares other passions: her family and all the furry/feather critters in this world. Her goal is to always be able to help one pet at a time.
