ABOUT ME

Hi there! I am from Recife, Brazil. I have obtained a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at the Centro de Informatica of the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, and a Master's degree in Mathematics at the Departamento de Matematica of the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (advised by Prof. Israel Vainsencher). I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at the Dept. of Mathematics of the University of Texas at Austin. I am glad to be part of the Number Theory group here at UT. My advisor is Prof. Felipe Voloch, and I am interested in Error-correcting Codes, specifically AG-Codes.
