About
I was born in Belém, Pará, Brazil, and completed part of my secondary education in Greenwood, Indiana, United States. I earned my BSc and MSc in Physics from the University of Campinas and my PhD in Physics from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. I am a researcher at the Graduate Program in Multidisciplinary Applied Physics at UFRJ. My interests include general relativity, warp-drive spacetimes, classical and quantum gravity, cosmology, quantum computing, computational physics, econophysics, artificial intelligence, and pure and applied mathematics.
