Já vendi roupas, fui fotógrafo, jornalista, publicitário, garçom, barman e até em fábrica de chocolates eu trabalhei. Percebi que é errando que se chega onde se deseja. E essa errância implica necessariamente em experimentar.
Desde 1999, quando ajudei a fundar a Cidade Escola Aprendiz, resolvi justamente experimentar a mistura entre comunicação, educação e inovação. Isso porque cobri o tema da educação para os principais veículos de comunicação do país e, após um sabático em Londres e contato diário com a BBC, percebi que faria a diferença se trabalhasse com a mão na massa.
Desde então, empreendo, sou consultor, faço palestras, aulas, elaboro e implemento projetos, escrevo livros, artigos; enfim, desenvolvo educação transformadora para governos, empresas e terceiro setor – dentro e fora do Brasil. Cursei especialização em Comunicação Comunitária e Novos Negócios na Universidade de Califórnia - Berkeley.
Atualmente sou fundador da ZeitGeist - Educação, Mídias e Cultura, além de representante do think tank GAPMIL da UNESCO, para America Latina e Caribe. Sou autor do livro “Idade Mídia”, dentre outros e faço parte da rede de Repensadores da agência REPENSE.
