Senior Digital Inside Sales Representative

Michele studied Public and Finance Administration; however, she never acted in such an area. Fascinated with social and political matters, she loves working with services. At Autodesk, she started as Channel Specialist, then Client Services, and now she is part of the Digital Inside Sales team. From Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, singer and guitarist Michele is proud to say she was born and grew up in the Rocinha favela, where she draws much of her musical motivation and appreciation. While she draws inspiration from several artists, Elis Regina and Rosa Passos have influenced her work the most. Her vocal repertoire includes Samba, Bossa Nova, Brazilian Pop & Rock, MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira), Choro, and Forró, but she also plays various Brazilian percussion instruments. Michele loves exploring the Colorado music scene and sharing her culture and music with a new public.
