Birthplace: Brazil

I am a Research Scientist at the Observatório Nacional (Brazil). I hold a PhD in Physics from São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris (France). My research aims to advance the understanding of the formation, evolution, and composition of Solar System objects, as well as those in exoplanetary systems. I have a strong background in the study of the origin and dynamics of satellites, rings, and small bodies. My work is primarily based on numerical simulations. I have experience with a wide range of computational tools, including N-body codes, hydrodynamical solvers, and SPH methods. I am also deeply interested in the theory of orbital dynamics and seek to compare my numerical results with theoretical predictions and observational data. I was part of NASA's DART mission and am currently a member of ESAs Hera mission. My contributions to the field have been recognised with the Wagner Sessin Prize in Dynamical and Planetary Astronomy and the Best Thesis Award from São Paulo State University.
