Curiosity at the intersection of systems and evidence.

I study Computer Science at the Federal University of Technology – Paraná (UTFPR). My work ranges from configuring secure networks and Linux environments to developing applications and evaluating machine-learning models.

My current research explores forensic readiness on Linux: how complementary logging, integrity and timeline tools can improve the reconstruction of suspicious activity.
