Designing a methodological framework to transform public oncology data into structured evidence

Prisma Platform

Cliente: Novartis Public health data in Brazil holds immense potential for understanding how breast cancer care is delivered across the healthcare system. However, extracting meaningful insight from these datasets requires more than technical access - it demands a rigorous methodological approach capable of translating administrative data into reliable analytical evidence. Prisma Platform was developed to address this challenge.

Revealing how oncology care actually happens inside the Brazilian health system

Radar do Câncer

Client: Oncoguia The Brazilian public health system produces an extraordinary volume of data. Yet much of it remains fragmented across multiple administrative databases, making it difficult to translate raw information into meaningful insights about how care is actually delivered. Radar do Câncer was created to address this gap.

Philosophy

On Approach & Mindset

Read Full Philosophy

I believe the most valuable work happens where rigorous evidence meets sound strategic judgment. Data can illuminate patterns and clarify trade-offs - but it is leadership and insight that ultimately determine direction.

In healthcare and the pharmaceutical industry, challenges rarely exist in isolation. Scientific evidence, regulatory environments, market access dynamics, and institutional incentives interact in ways that shape outcomes. My work focuses on helping leaders see these dynamics more clearly - so decisions are grounded not only in information, but in a coherent understanding of the system in which they operate.

Meaningful transformation requires more than technical capability. It requires the ability to translate complex realities into clear strategic choices, align stakeholders around a shared direction, and design solutions that create lasting value rather than temporary improvements.

Clarity Over Complexity

True understanding reveals what actually matters — and removes what does not.

Evidence Over Intuition

Strategy must be grounded in evidence, not intuition alone.

Impact Over Activity

The ultimate measure of strategic work is whether outcomes improve.
