Intelligent Architecture
Founder · Entrepreneur · Virtual Reality Dev
ArqInt was founded to transform the way people engage with architecture — not as static blueprints, but as immersive, real-time experiences. I spearheaded the development of a virtual reality platform that brought architectural plans to life as fully navigable environments, seamlessly integrating dynamic lighting, spatial audio, material responsiveness, and real-time simulations. This suite of tools enabled clients to explore unbuilt spaces with emotional resonance and spatial precision — long before a single foundation was laid.
By eliminating the reliance on physical sales stands, the platform reduced marketing expenditures by more than 70%, while dramatically boosting client engagement across both residential and commercial projects. Embraced by boutique studios and large-scale developers alike, it quickly evolved beyond a visualization tool into a strategic differentiator. ArqInt redefined architectural storytelling as an embodied experience — empowering users to decide faster, comprehend more deeply, and form meaningful connections with the spaces they imagined.
Immersive Design
Immersive Experience · Creative Technologist
Immersive Design explores how technology transforms space into interface — and narrative into experience. Using virtual and augmented reality, paired with high-fidelity 3D visualization, I create interactive environments that translate abstract concepts into tangible, multisensory understanding.
Through tools like Unreal Engine, spatial audio, and responsive lighting systems, each simulation becomes a living, reactive space — where architecture, movement, and emotion converge to communicate meaning with depth and precision.
What began as a creative exploration has evolved into a strategic tool. These immersive experiences don’t rely on explanation — they deliver clarity through presence. In industries where understanding shapes decisions and emotion drives outcomes, Immersive Design helps clients pitch more convincingly, connect with users more deeply, and leave lasting impressions.
Mechanical Arm
Researcher · Developer · Neurotechnology
What if autonomy could be rebuilt — not theoretically, but physically, gesture by gesture? This project turned that question into a functional reality: a low-cost, neuro-responsive prosthetic designed to restore agency through muscle control and human-centered engineering.
Using surface electromyography (sEMG) data captured by the Myo Armband, I developed a signal interpretation system that translated subtle forearm contractions into real-time motion across the hand, wrist, and elbow. The mechanical architecture was fully 3D-printed and controlled via an Arduino microcontroller, offering modularity, affordability, and responsiveness with latency under 250ms.
Featured in Estadão and O Tempo, the project embodied a core principle: that dignified assistive technology should be accessible by design. It became more than a prosthetic — it became a platform for reimagining motion, independence, and the future of inclusive robotics.
Brain Computer Interface
Researcher · Developer · HCI & BCI
Gesture is not merely motion — it is memory, intention, and embodied language. This research explored how neuromuscular signals could serve as intuitive, expressive interfaces for digital systems — eliminating the need for screens, cursors, or mechanical mediation.
I engineered a system that connected the Myo Armband to Arduino microcontrollers and an Android interface, translating forearm muscle contractions into real-time control of lights, motors, and spatial experiences. Signal filtering, ergonomic mapping, and adaptive calibration enabled precise responsiveness with minimal cognitive load — allowing users to command their environment through movement alone.
Presented at a national academic conference, the work positioned the body itself as a site of interaction — not metaphorically, but materially. It offered both technical validation and philosophical provocation: that the next interface may not be something we hold or wear but something that listens — and responds — to the body's subtle rhythms.
International Experience
Yale University
Advanced English Program ·
Cultural and Academic Immersion
My time at Yale University represented more than a study abroad experience — it was a formative encounter with global diversity, academic rigor, and intellectual maturity. As part of an advanced English and cultural immersion program, I lived on campus and engaged with students from France, Russia, Turkey, China, and Japan. Together, we participated in daily seminars, intensive language training, and cultural dialogue in one of the world’s most storied academic environments.
This immersion offered more than linguistic fluency. It sharpened my ability to communicate ideas clearly, to listen across differences, and to collaborate with empathy in multicultural contexts. I learned that effective communication is not just about vocabulary, but about timing, tone, curiosity, and presence.
Inside and outside the classroom, I discovered the power of shared experience and intellectual humility. Yale became a living space of ideas — one that challenged me to think globally, speak precisely, and lead with awareness. That experience continues to shape how I build, connect, and create across borders.
Compra Certa
Entrepreneur · Digital Product Strategy
Compra Certa was developed as a strategic response to the evolving dynamics of Brazil’s e-commerce landscape. As both developer and entrepreneur, I created a performance-driven online store focused on reliability, user experience, and brand trust — overseeing every stage from technical infrastructure to digital positioning.
The platform prioritized secure transactions, responsive design, and seamless integration with analytics and conversion tools. I implemented targeted digital marketing strategies that increased visibility and built consumer confidence, even in the absence of major marketplace support.
More than a store, Compra Certa became a real-world case study in lean development and strategic validation. It provided measurable sales results and insights into customer behavior, brand building, and iterative product refinement. The project served as a live lab for testing decisions at the intersection of UX, digital operations, and business modeling — setting the stage for future, more scalable ventures in the digital commerce space.
Acoustic Windows
Independent Developer · Immersive Product ·
Developed in collaboration with a company specializing in soundproofing solutions, this project transformed a technical product into an immersive sensory experience. Using virtual reality combined with surround sound simulation, I created a spatial demo that allowed users to perceive the acoustic efficiency of advanced windows in real-time — not through specifications, but through sensation.
The solution was implemented in trade shows and showrooms as a decision-making tool, helping clients grasp the value of sound insulation immediately and intuitively. By simulating noise reduction in real-life scenarios, the experience accelerated trust and shortened sales cycles.
This project exemplified how immersive technology can elevate B2B communication — translating complex features into emotional clarity. It bridged the gap between engineering and perception, making technical value tangible, memorable, and persuasive.
