My research interests include historiography, theories of history, digital history, digital humanities, history education, and intellectual history.

I received the national award for the best monograph defended between 2013 and 2016, granted by the Brazilian Society for Theory of History and Historiography. I served as Head of the Digital Repositories and Access Platforms Section at the São Paulo State Public Archive, where I developed the first LLM (Large Language Model) architectures specialized in archival science (2025). I am a member of the History and Political Languages: Reason, Sentiments, and Sensibilities research group, active since 1991. I also collaborate with the Peripheral Historiographies in Global Perspective and Theory of History and Historiography in Brazil research groups.
