Hi there! 👋

I’m a MSc student in Mathematical Modeling at the School of Applied Mathematics of Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV EMAp), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and I’m actively seeking PhD opportunities.

I hold a BSc in Applied Mathematics at FGV EMAp (2021) and I’m a member of the Visual Data Science Lab of FGV EMAp (since 2020), where I develop research in NLP and XAI. In 2022 I visited the Vision, Language, and Learning Lab at Rice University, Houston, to develop research ideas in XAI. I also have experience in projects applying machine learning, NLP, XAI, and data visualization in legal problems.

Research interests:

  • Machine learning
  • Natural language processing
  • Explainable artificial intelligence
