I'm an AI & Backend Engineer working at the intersection of computer vision and agricultural technology. At Global Drones, I build end-to-end AI pipelines that turn drone imagery into reliable, actionable insights for decision-making in the field.
My work spans the full AI lifecycle, from dataset creation and model training to post-processing algorithms and production API integration, always with a focus on stability, scalability, and real-world delivery.
I'm a Computer Engineering student at UFSC (graduating Dec 2026), and I'm passionate about applied AI.
