Throughout my career, I have built a solid track record combining technical achievements, entrepreneurial experience, and applied engineering projects, always driven by innovation, leadership, and problem-solving. From an early age, I achieved significant recognition in national and international engineering and robotics competitions. I placed 4th nationally in Brazil at the FIRST LEGO League, and 1st overall internationally at the FIRST LEGO League Open European Championship in Germany, competing against teams from multiple countries. I also achieved 4th place in Engineering at FEBRACE, Brazil’s leading engineering and applied science fair, and was awarded a CNPq robotics scholarship, recognizing both technical excellence and research potential. In parallel with my technical development, I built a strong entrepreneurial and business background. I co-founded and managed technology- and service-oriented initiatives, gaining hands-on experience in operations, team leadership, strategic planning, and business development. I also held management responsibilities in operational environments, where I led teams, structured processes, and aligned daily execution with organizational strategy. Currently, I serve as a Senior Consultant at Security Center do Brasil, where I support strategic decision-making, process structuring, risk analysis, and the integration of technology to improve operational efficiency and business performance. This role allows me to connect engineering thinking with real business challenges, delivering practical and scalable solutions. My engineering portfolio includes the development of several autonomous and multidisciplinary projects, such as: • A robot designed to support elderly people with depression • An autonomous “follow-me” drone • An autonomous hovercraft for hard-to-access areas • An autonomous boat for bathymetric analysis, developed in partnership with the Port of Recife These projects reflect my ability to work across mechanics, electronics, software, systems integration, and
