Who Am I?

Hi there 👋

I am currently studying for my degree in Information Systems at the Federal University of Minas Gerais and I work as a undergraduate researcher at FutureLab (DCC - UFMG) and Hub de Inteligência Artificial e Arquiteturas Cognitivas (H.IAAC - Unicamp), with the goal of developing and implementing a Federated Learning technique applied to Client Selection.

In addition, I have an interest for several programming languages ​such as C, C++ and Python, mainly focused on data analysis and machine learning.

I like to solve problems and that is why I had several experiences in the areas of maintenance and I chose a college related to software development.

Also, a significant part of my life was dedicated to volunteer work. I was involved in the scouting movement for seven years and participated in various events and projects. In addition, I volunteered in mentoring projects sponsored by the university during 2024 and the summer of 2025. Furthermore, during my undergraduate studies, I participated in various projects, such as serving as a student volunteer at the International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (INTERACT 2025) and working as a volunteer teaching assistant for six months in 2025.

I am always open to new opportunities and projects in which I can contribute!
