Olá! I’m a Ph.D. candidate and Fulbright fellow in the Computing and Information Sciences Program at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). I am co-advised by Matt Huenerfauth and Roshan Peiris in my research, which deals with speech accessibility and captioning technology. I am also a member of the Center for Accessibility and Inclusion Research Lab (CAIR).

Previously, I obtained a master’s degree in Computer Engineering at the University of Campinas, working with Paula Costa on speech-modulated typography. My thesis can be found here.

I am also a co-founder of Preface, a design studio from Campinas, Brazil. Since 2007, we have worked with clients from many sectors, with a particular focus on educational projects. For my work as a designer there, I have won some awards.
