About me

I am a professor at the Computer Science Department of the Federal University of Ouro Preto (UFOP). I finished my doctoral degree in Engineering Technology (Phd) at KU Leuven, Belgium, in 2017. I hold a Master's degree in Computer Science from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) (2009), and a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from UFOP (2006).

I have experience in teaching and researching computer science methodologies, particularly in the fields of Algorithms, Optimization and Computational Intelligence. My previous activities include project management and development of optimization softwares for large scale companies.
