“This is an opportunity to be part of a major institution with history, tradition, and significance in Brazilian soccer. It is a new professional challenge that allows me to contribute to what I believe in: the development of the athlete and the individual. I also hope to help build an increasingly healthy, safe, and supportive environment for growth, and to leave behind consistent work that strengthens people, relationships, and journeys,” the psychologist said.

Mariana, meanwhile, holds a degree in Nutrition, a Master’s degree in Sciences from USP, and is a Specialist in Sports Nutrition. She also has a degree in Physical Education and has 16 years of teaching experience in the field.

“Working at São Paulo is a great responsibility. I feel prepared, because I studied and worked very hard to reach this moment, and I am very happy and proud of this opportunity. I hope to build a relationship of respect and trust with the athletes, coaching staff, and management, as well as carry out evaluations and interventions whenever necessary to achieve the highest level of performance that the jersey and the importance of the club demand,” said the professional.
