{Leadership and Management} {Software Development} {Information Security} {Training}

With over 17 years of experience as a web system developer, I've honed my skills in various technologies, with a specialization in the Microsoft stack, including .Net, SQL Server, Cosmos DB, and Azure. I've had the privilege of serving as a Senior Developer since 2011 and transitioning into the role of Team Lead Engineer in 2017, where I've not only showcased technical prowess but also honed exceptional leadership skills.

Alongside my industry contributions, I've been passionate about academia, taking on the role of an IT professor at universities. Balancing a full-time industry role with my love for teaching, I consistently share my knowledge with both students and colleagues.

My academic journey is a testament to my commitment to continuous learning and professional growth, holding degrees from prestigious institutions such as the University of São Paulo (USP), Fundação Getúlio Vargas (FGV), and the University of São Carlos (UFSCar). My qualifications include a BSc in Computer Science, a Post Grad in Software Engineering, an MBA in Project Management, and an MSc in Applied Computer Science.

Excited about the intersection of web system development, leadership, and education, I am poised to make a lasting impact. Leveraging my extensive experience, I aim to drive innovation, foster growth, and inspire teams to achieve new heights.
