I received my PhD in Computer Science from the University of São Paulo, Brazil. I am an assistant professor in Computer Engineering at Insper.
My PhD advisors were Prof. Carlos Hitoshi Morimoto and Prof. Margrit Betke (Boston University).
My research is focused on assistive technology applications for people with severe motor disabilities, such as quadriplegia. During my PhD I worked with gaze-based applications using eye gaze trackers. For my thesis I developed a gaze-based text entry method called EyeSwipe, which is similar to the swipe method available for smartphones.
Besides teaching, I am currently developing assistive technology applications for people with motor impairments using commercial off-the-shelf devices.
