Hardware Designer with a PhD in Electrical Enginnering
Former Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering
A long, long time ago I started my journey into computing. I was a little kid back then, taking my first steps as a developer on computing on my parents Intel 286 (with 1.024MB of RAM and 40MB of space in my HD). Yet I got hooked by the virtually endless possibilities that computer programming had to offer.
More recently, as an assistant professor of the Electrical Engineering School of Puc Campinas, I realized that the future of mankind will rely heavily on computers and computing modules, which are becoming increasingly complex, powerful, and ubiquitous. This realization led me to decide to dedicate my efforts to becoming a hardware designer, as I believe that this field holds the key to shaping the future of technology and its impact on humanity.
