About me

Hey there, here is a little bit about me. I will try to keep it short.

I am a Brazilian/Italian IT professional living in Berlin. During High School, I went on an exchange program to Alberta - Canada for a year. It was an amazing experience studying and learning the canadian culture in a small town. After I was done High School I decided to take some time off to figure out what was I going to do for living and that is when I started learning about computers. Since enjoying playing around with hardware and systems, I attended classes at CESUFOZ for a B. Tech degree in Computer Networks. After earning my degree, thinking that I should still keep studying IT in general, I enrolled myself in Computer Science bachelor program. Those were 5 pretty hard years, but I managed to battle through them and earn that degree as well.

During my CS studies, I started an internship at Fundação Parque Tecnológico Itaipu - Brasil, where I worked as hard as I could, acquired new skills and knowledge and finally was offered a full time position as as Helpdesk Technician. Later on, with another degree under the belt and some really good feedback from other employees, my manager at the time offered me the System Administrator position and this was the first time adventuring on new waters. Throughout those days I learned way more than I ever did as a technician.

Currently living in Berlin and working for eyeo GmbH.

Interests

Learning new technologies

I ocasionally enjoy creating a VM with a Linux distribution that I have not worked with just so I could play around with it. Also, learning new technologies most related to System Administration and DevOps field.

Travelling

During my travels I am always trying to conceal them with a festival or band tour to see.

Sports

Mostly football/soccer but I am always curious about winter sports. I have played indoor soccer throughout my teenage years, but in the past 10 years my love for hockey and snowboard have outgrown soccer.

Music

One of my favorite things to do is going to concerts. Growing up, I have always been fascinated by music, specially metal and hardcore. I am still trying to fullfill my dream of seeing all the bands I really like.

Gaming

Since I was 6 years old, when I first got my gaming console, I have played a lot of video games and different platforms. It does not matter what type of game it is, as long as it catches my interest.

Photography

I got in photography after using a couple of disposable film (35mm) camera. Since then I have started learning how to take pictures and have bought different cameras, digital and film.
