Academic information
I'm currently in my second semester of Computer Science at the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUC-PR), one of Brazil's most well-known universities. I was nominated for the Dean's List (2025) in recognition of outstanding academic performance.
I founded the Hacking Club, a creative problem-solving group focused on programming. My friend Marcos and I teach algortihms and data structures to any interested student. We also plan on introducting topics like software architecture and design patterns soon. We have a YouTube channel and a GitHub repository where all lectures will be posted, if you're interested.
Besides the club, I also created de GDA (Deepening Group), which offers weekly workshops on job-relevant skills such as Git, Linux, and various technologies. This workshop is not open to the public, as the university considers it voluntary mentoring I provide. However, you can check our Instagram page to see past sessions and the topics covered.
I am also an active member of the Public Speaking Club. I recognize that, even though I'm in a highly technical field, communication is equally important. This is why I dedicate myself to participating in the club's discussions and presentations.
Additionally, I participated in PIBEP (Institutional Entrepreneurship and Research Scholarship Program of PUC-PR), a program that allows students to launch products and receive university funding. My team built Cosmopeer, a language learning app that leverages Artificial Intelligente to adapt reading material to various proficiency levels.
Under the guidance of Professor Andrey Cabral Meira, I am developing the ClassDocs project for the Liga Jovem Challenge by Sebrae/SC. The solution uses AI (RAG) to allow teachers to create personalized virtual assistants for their subjects, combating technology misuse and promoting conscious study. The MVP was presented on August 27th.
I participated in Clubes de Ciência Brasil (CdeC) at PUCPR, where I co-developed an IoT system to monitor water quality using C/C++, JavaScript and ESP32. During the 45-hour event, which included guidance from a Stanford researcher, I successfully presented the final project and received positive feedback.
Recently, I created the CompStack newsletter, focused on sharing knowledge about free technology tools for students, relevant technology news, and useful GitHub repositories.
