I’m  a post-doc researcher working at the Data Engineering Systems team
at the HPI.

Currently I'm working with graph stream processing systems and benchmarking,
but I'm also interested in data stream processing on complex virtualized
infrastructures such as Edge, Fog and Cloud computing.

Between 2018 and 2019 I worked as a post-researcher at the Inria
team Kerdata in Rennes, France. I received my PhD from the Université de Lyon, France, in 2017, and my
Master’s and Bachelor degrees from the University of São Paulo, Brazil in 2013 and 2011, respectively.
