I got my PhD from Federal University of Pernambuco in 2007. I worked under the supervision of Prof. Paulo Borba. During my PhD, I went through a 3-month internship at MIT (Software Design Group) working under the supervision of Prof. Daniel Jackson.

As of January 2009, I am an assistant professor in computer science faculty at Federal University of Campina Grande (Department of Computing Systems).
I am affiliated to the Software Productivity Group and Embedded Lab.
