Biography

Andre (he/him/his) has been to engineering school years ago and dropped out to work in programming to translating. Andre came back to academia to major in physics, minor in astronomy in 2012. Since then he has followed the straight academic life path, just being the 'older guy around'.

Education

University of São Paulo – Institute of Astronomy, Geophysics and Atmospheric Sciences

PhD. in Astronomy, 2019

M.Sc. in Astronomy, 2015

B.S. in Physics, 2013

Professional Experience

Photometric calibration for the S-PLUS survey, weak lensing pipelines, galaxy shape measurements and calibration with tensorflow.

Community Service

Presented on "Virada Científica USP 2015" a 24-hour event showcasing science done in the university for the wide public, we emphasise bringing people from all walks of life to discover the science being made in Brazil.

Research Interests

Formation of large scale structure, image processing.
