College Projects

I'm always in action.

Over the course of my Computer Engineering degree, I've collaborated with peers to tackle real-world challenges. Below are a few highlights from hackathons, client-sponsored projects, and team-led initiatives I completed during university.

  • [

    [Project] IBM - Autonomous Healthcare Robot

    Sao Paulo, Brazil

    Developed a system to predict potential failures at checkpoints during T-Cross production line, allowing for early intervention and reduced downtime, with the entire pipepline running in the cloud.
  • [

    [Hackathon] Brex Challenge - 2nd Place (R$750,00)

    Sao Paulo, Brazil

    Created a delinquency collections procedure for the Empower Billing team to effectively collect payments.
  • [

    [Hackathon] Stark Bank AI Revolution - 3rd Place (R$8.000)

    Sao Paulo, Brazil

    Developed in less than 24 hours a Financial Forecasting tool for C-Levels to predict and make 'what-if' scenarios across 20+ KPIs, using state-of-the-art deep learning models.

    [Project] Volkswagen - Deep Learning System

    Sao Paulo, Brazil

    Developed a system to predict potential failures at checkpoints during T-Cross production line, allowing for early intervention and reduced downtime, with the entire pipepline running in the cloud.
VR Projects

Building the future, one reality at a time

I've been crafting immersive AR/VR experiences for global companies. Each project pushes the boundaries of what's possible in virtual worlds. Here are some of my most impactful projects.

L’Oréal Brandstorm 2024

Activation for L’Oréal Brandstorm 2024, using marker‐based augmented reality to transform the press kit into an immersive, interactive brand experience.

Meta Spark Worlds Challenge Winner ($1,000)

Designed and developed an AR experience for Meta Platforms with the theme of Stranger Things, being accesssed by thousands of users across the world and being one among the winners.

Renault

Built an AR experience for Renault that uses plane tracking to preview an upcoming employee trip, placing immersive 3D scenes of their future journey directly into their real-world environment.

Corteva

Created an AR experience for Corteva to unveil their new Ultrisha N product, using real-time hand tracking to illustrate healthier corn growth through interactive 3D visuals and soil-process simulations.
