Biography

During the last two years, I've experienced rigorous courses like Machine Learning, Data Science, and Algorithm & Data Structures at Insper, which has provided me with a strong foundation in both theory and practice. Projects such as an Ames house pricing predictor, a meeting room reservation app, or a linear algebra 3d to 2d projection, have been a recurrent part of my curriculum. Further, my contributions to the university's sprint sessions (intensive
projects aimed at tackling real company challenges) such as a flood alert system for a São Paulo community or an internal social platform web service for a banking big tech, have been focused on developing problem-solving skills and translating theoretical knowledge into real-world solutions. Finally, being a math tutor and calculus peer mentor has allowed me to hone my communicative abilities, which, combined with the tech environment, makes me excited to deepen my knowledge on the AI, mathematics, and data science fields.
