Bio

I am a PhD student at the MPI-SWS Operating Systems Group, where I am advised by Antoine Kaufmann and investigate TCP kernel bypass and ways to speed up packet processing in virtualized environments. My interests revolve around operating systems, distributed systems and datacentre networking, but any systems related topics pique my interest.

Previously, I was an undergrad and MSc student at the University of British Columbia. I was part of the Systopia Lab, where I was advised by Ivan Beschastnikh and Aline Talhouk. At UBC I built secure and privacy-preserving distributed systems, where I collaborated closely with Mathias Lécuyer on exploring novel ways for DP systems to conserve their privacy budget.

Before that I grew up in Belo Horizonte, the capital of the beautiful state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. In Beagá, how Belo Horizonte is affectionately called, I enjoyed some of the best culinary delicacies Brazil has to offer and supported my local football team Cruzeiro.
