Turning messy data into decisions that matter. Python, ML, NLP — and always learning in public.
About Me
I'm a Data Scientist focused on building things that matter. My work lives at the intersection of machine learning, NLP, and real-world impact — from helping low-literacy job seekers build resumes via WhatsApp voice messages to detecting fake news with 95%+ accuracy.
I'm also part of TAIL (Technology and Artificial Intelligence League) — the largest academic AI league in Northern/Northeastern Brazil — where I develop projects and research in AI.

My Work
A selection of projects showcasing my skills in Data Science, Machine Learning, and NLP.
Biu — WhatsApp Employment Assistant
Conversational assistant that helps low-literacy job seekers build a professional Harvard-style PDF resume through WhatsApp voice messages — no forms, no typing, no friction. Also finds real job listings matched to their profile.
Fake News Detector
95%+ accuracy classifier combining classical NLP, Transformers, and deep linguistic analysis on the WELFake dataset (70,000+ labeled articles). Full pipeline from data cleaning to Sentence Embeddings.
Instituto Alpargatas — Educational Urgency Mapping
Mapped educational urgency across municipalities supported by Instituto Alpargatas using official INEP/IDEB data (approval and dropout rates), assessed the Institute's impact per region, and proposed data-driven improvement paths.
Tech Stack
Tools and technologies I use daily to build robust and scalable data solutions.
