She graduated in Administration at Fundação Getúlio Vargas and dedicated herself to studying psychological profiles of criminals,[1] especially serial killers.

She collaborated with the Investigation Discovery channel website between 2012 and 2013. Currently, she subscribes to a column in the Brasileiros Magazine.
The writer is also dedicated to fiction. The crime specialist – who already did an internship in the scientific police, when she followed up the homicide investigation – participated, at the invitation of Fox Brasil, in the creation of a profile of the psychopath Dexter Morgan, anti-hero and protagonist of the series that takes her name and which has become one of the most revered in recent years. Ilana Casoy was a collaborator on the series written by Gloria Perez and directed by Mauro Mendonça Filho, Dupla Identidade, shown in September 2014 on Rede Globo.
