Biography

I’m a Ph.D. student at the University of São Paulo, working with Professor Gustavo Nonato. My area of research lies in applying machine learning techniques, especially Graph Neural Networks, to solve problems with sparse spatio-temporal data.

I obtained my Master’s in Computer Science from the Federal University of Campina Grande under Prof. Joseana Fechine. During my Master’s degree study, my area of research was Artificial Intelligence in Education. In my work, I developed an Intelligent Tutoring System with automatic feedback for CS1 courses.

I obtained my Bachelor of Computer Science at the Federal University of Alagoas. During this time, I work with Professor Evandro Costa. In addition, I participated as a developer in creating three intelligent tutoring systems in Mathematics, Propositional Logic, and Computer Programming.
