I have always been very curious about technology, and over the years, my interest has turned into a passion. During my master’s and undergraduate studies in History, I had the opportunity to study Digital History and Digital Humanities, which introduced me to the world of Programming, Data Science, Linux, and Open Source. In 2018, I completely switched to Linux and have no regrets! With Linux, I learned valuable things, the main one being: there is no problem without a solution!

I have research experience in the field of History, with an emphasis on Contemporary History and Republican Brazil, mainly focusing on the following topics: digital history, right-wing movements, new right, military dictatorship, critical internet studies, digital media, digital preservation, present-day history, memory, and public history.
