interactive
I'm a human-computer interaction guy who teaches algorithms and data structures.
Teaching
I believe that usability principles and visualization techniques can really help students grasp complex and abstract concepts.
Selected courseware I've developed:
- Python Gym: a web app for learning Python with instant feedback.
- Active Handout Astro: a framework for interactive course development built with Astro.

I'm interested in exploring how a user's gaze can be used as an interactive element in computer systems.
Selected research I've developed in the past:
- EyeSwipe: gaze-based text entry method analogous to keyboard swiping on smartphone
- CameraMouseSuite: a camera-based mouse-replacement interface.

About me
I am an Assistant Professor in Computer Science and Engineering at Insper , with a primary focus on teaching. I earned my PhD in Computer Science from the University of São Paulo (USP ) in 2018, under the guidance of Prof. Carlos Hitoshi Morimoto and Prof. Margrit Betke (Boston University ).
My doctoral research focused on assistive technologies for individuals with severe motor disabilities, particularly quadriplegia. I developed gaze-based applications, including two text entry methods -- EyeSwipe and Swipe&Switch -- designed to operate similarly to smartphone swipe keyboards.
At Insper, I’m dedicated to developing interactive materials that foster hands-on learning. My background in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) has proven invaluable in teaching a wide range of topics, from algorithms and data structures to web development.
I'm always open to collaboration, so feel free to reach out!
