About

I am a data scientist with a background as a semiconductor physicist and extensive experience in data handling and analysis applied to complex research. My current projects are in the field of data science using machine learning and statistical methods that can be useful for scientific investigations, business solutions and project funding.

Through research, I have worked on improving quantum devices and complex systems. To do this, I used automation processes, advanced mathematical models and data analysis using machine learning methods.

I am fluent in several programming languages including Python, SQL, C++ and Java. During my 10+ years of experience, I have used my programming skills to develop automation processes, advanced mathematical models and data analysis using machine learning methods.

My recent projects have involved the development of time series models for forecasting fuel demand and demand for metro trains in the metropolitan transport system of the city of São Paulo/Brazil.
