I’m an adjunct professor of Transportation Engineering at the Faculty of Science and Technology (FCT) of the Federal University of Goiás (UFG). I’m interested in exploring Computer Science within Transportation Engineering through Computational Intelligence (e.g., Machine Learning, Evolutionary Computing, and Fuzzy Logic) and Distributed Systems (e.g., Internet of Things and Data Stream Processing) to enable Intelligent Transportation Systems and Smart Cities. Further, I’m also interested in investigating the direct and collateral effects of such systems in our society.

I hold a PhD. degree (2017) in Computer Science (Informatics) from the Department of Informatics of the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio). In 2013, I received a M.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the Instituto de Informática (INF) at Federal University of Goiás (UFG). I also received my bachelor degree in Computer Science from the same institute and university (INF/UFG) at 2011. I have participated in numerous research projects, from public and private agencies, such as DELL, Microsoft Research, RNP, FAPEG, and FAPERJ. In addition, I participated in a project for the Rio de Janeiro Operation Center that developed an Intelligent Transportation Messaging System to aid traffic operators during the Olympic games of Rio de Janeiro in 2016.
