I have a degree in Electrical Engineering from UFSM, a master's degree in Electrical Engineering from UFSM, and a PhD in Agricultural Engineering from UFSM. After graduation, I was a managing partner of two engineering companies, working on the design and execution of electrical installations, logic networks, and electronic security systems, as well as preparing reports, evaluations, and expert assessments. During this ten-year period, I not only gained significant experience in business management but also had the opportunity to learn the specifics of my profession. During this same period, I was an inspector for CREA-RS. I continue to actively participate in my professional council, representing it on undergraduate course boards. I am currently a Full Professor at the Industrial Technical College of Santa Maria (CTISM), teaching Electronics, Digital Circuits and Systems, Microcontrollers, Electroelectronic Maintenance, and Embedded Electronics in Agricultural Machinery. I've also been a member of the IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) since 1996. I also coordinate and participate in outreach projects related to Educational Robotics, Assistive Technology, and the promotion of the history, language, and culture of Italian immigration in the Quarta Colônia region. Regarding Research and Development, my areas of interest involve process automation, creativity, and innovation. In short, I've spent much of my life exploring all sides of the coin. And this story is just beginning.
