About

Hi, I’m a Computer Scientist who lives in Florianópolis/SC, Brazil.

My history in computing started in 1999, when I was 13 years old, when I gave Win95 and Office classes at school.

After that I started to code mIRC scripts and “bots” and then, trying to become a cracker, I installed Slackware in my PC and learned a little bit of Perl and C, by myself.

Then, in 2003 I started my Computer Science formal journey at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS).

Right after receiving my bachelor’s degree, I started to pursue (in 2007) a master’s degree in Computer Science, which I finally finished in 2010 (yeah, 4 long years). The title of my MSc dissertation was: Fault Tolerance in Web Services. You can can find the code of my project at my github account.

From 2003 and 2010 I’ve also worked in some companies doing web development with PHP.

Finally, by the end of 2010 I became a federal employee, working at the Brazilian’s Data Processing Service (SERPRO), where I still work. I’m currently working with test automation using, basically, Selenium.

In my free time I’m always studying about craftmanship, agile and dynamic languages like python and ruby.
