Patrícia Carlos de Andrade is a Brazilian economist, daughter of the journalist Evandro Carlos de Andrade (managing editor of O Globo from 1971 to 1995 and Director of TV Globo's News Center between 1995 and 2001). She was also married to economist Beny Parnes, with whom she had three children. In March 2005, she founded the Institute of National Reality Studies ("Instituto de Estudos da Realidade Nacional" - IERN), which became the Instituto Millenium in April 2006.

Carlos de Andrade has an M.A. in economics (1987) from Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (PUC-RJ), when she defended a thesis about The behavior of aggregate investment in Brazil – 1960/1985 ("O comportamento do investimento agregado no Brasil – 1960/1985"). The panel was composed by Dionisio Dias Carneiro, Edmar Lisboa Bacha and Rogério Ladeira Furquim Werneck, with Dionisio Dias Carneiro as advisor. The same year, she enrolled for a doctoral program at the University of Pennsylvania, which does not seem to be completed.

In 2011, she earned a Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) from the College of Liberal and Professional Studies (University of Pennsylvania's non-traditional education division), being oriented by Martin Seligman. In the same year, she was one of the organizers of the 1st Brazilian Conference of Positive Psychology, held between 20 and 21 October in the city of Rio de Janeiro.

Carlos de Andrade reports to have worked to the banks Icatu and JPMorgan, in positions of "economics and political analysis." Apparently, she has ceased to work as an economist, because her registration in the professional association (CORECON-RJ) was canceled on June 29, 2006 under this claim.
