I was born on 1986, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I take now my last semester of undergraduation in 'Applied Mathematics', but i have started my course studying 'Physics' and 'Psychology' - and coursed Pyhsics till about a half of my undergrad formation. However, in my next master and doctor degrees, i pretend to enter deeper on Epistemology, History of Science and, more generally, History of Ideas. My favourite authors are,on physics, Werner Heisenberg; on neurology, Oliver Sacks; on epistemology, Edgar Morin; on philosophy, Hans-Georg Gadamer.

Now, my main field of knowledge, however, is still Astronomy. I have participated on 2003 at "Internacional Astronomy Olympiad (IAO)", and since them i have written and produced scientific and educational material associated to teaching and studying with new students that participates on brazilian and international astronomy olympiad. This work is made together with a group of friends (see http://www.ordem.org) and under the support of Brazilian Astronomical Society.

In addition, i like so much of art, specially music. My musical education starts on classical music (being learned few of playnig piano, but mainly cause learning much since teenages), and now is more oriented to experimentalisms and some non-conventional musical arrangements. My favourite composers are Debussy, Ravel and Stravinsky; my favourite bands are Radiohead and Sigur Rós. My favourite romance writers are Virginia Woolf, Clarice Lispector and Guimarães Rosa; my favourite poet, João Cabral de Melo Neto.
