Biography


Moraes was born on 16 August 1975, in Duque de Caxias, in the Baixada Fluminense region of Rio de Janeiro state. She moved to Espírito Santo at 12 years old and lived in Cariacica. She is married to former hawker and ex-councilor in the city of Cariacica, Adilson Avelina, with whom she has three children and one grandchild. She worked as a street vendor in the centre of Vitória, where she had at one point her products seized due to the profession being considered informal work.
Engaged in social activism, she presided over the Association of Street Vendors of the State of Espírito Santo, and two times with the Bairro Operário Neighborhood Association in Cariacica. In 2012, she was elected as a councilwoman in Cariacica for the Social Democratic Party (PSD). She won her first election with 2,562 votes.
During the 2018 elections, she became a pre-candidate for federal deputy when she was invited to run for statewide election as the vice-governor with ex-governor Renato Casagrande (PSB). They were elected in the first round with 55.49% of the vote. She became the first Black person and first woman to be elected to the position.
To chronicle her political career, she published "Origens", where she discusses her activism in favor of street vendors and her career as a community leader that led her to running for public office.
