I am an Associate Professor at the Federal University of Technology, Paraná. My research area is Software Engineering, and my overarching research objective is to assist developers in facilitating the sharing of knowledge and the acquisition of both scientific and practical expertise.

Research topics:

• Software development communities
• Knowledge exchange in software engineering
• Agile methods

I am the co-creator and co-host of the Fronteiras da Engenharia de Software podcast, the Elixir em Foco podcast and Emílias Podcast - Women in Computing, all of them in Portuguese. I am also the co-creator and co-host of the Hello, Erlang! podcast and the creator and host of the Professor Adolfo Neto podcast.

I’m an enthusiast and act as an informal DevRel for the Elixir, Erlang, and Lean programming languages.
