I obtained a degree in Social Sciences (2015) from the Federal University of Pernambuco/BR. I have a Ph.D. in Sociology (2022.1) from UERJ/BR, the same institution where I defended my Master's degree (2017.1). I develop research in the intersection of sociology and philosophy, emphasizing the following topics: history of social theory, G. Simmel, aesthetics and sociology, Kant, neo-Kantianism, Kritik der Urteilskraft, German critical theory, imagination and social ontology (C. Castoriadis).
