Audio compression and related technologies are one of my hobbies, and I've been dedicating some time that I have to learn about this issues now. That's how I came across [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums hydrogenaudio forums] in early 2003.

Me on the hotel pool

I work for a big international bank as an IT Audit Supervisor in Brasil. I am mainly focused in auditing client/server, midrange, network infrastructure, projects and strategy of the bank and related companies in Brasil.

Audio compression and related technologies are one of my hobbies. That's how I came across hydrogenaudio forums in early 2003.


About

São Paulo downtown skyline
My Amsterdam's apartment view

I was born in São Paulo in july 1975. I've also lived for some time in a small town in São Paulo state countryside called Marília where I went to high school.

After high school (in 1994) I moved back to São Paulo to continue my studies in electrical engineering (telecommunications) at the local university. During that period my main interests were:

  • Wired and wireless telecomunication systems
  • Digital coding for wired and wireless systems
  • Analog and digital filters
  • Antennas and signal propagation
  • Discrete and continuous transforms
  • Computers and digital systems

After some time working in the engineering field I received a proposal to join the internal audit department of a banking company in 1998 as an intern. This decision brought a great shift in my career and I decided to face engineering more as a hobby from that day forth.

To be more prepared for the new challenge I decided to learn Economics at another local university and got my post-graduate degree in 2002. During this period my main academic interests were:

  • Banking
  • Keynesian economics
  • Inflation targeting in emerging market countries
  • Econometrics
  • Value at risk
  • Economic policy and central banks
  • Valuation

As part of my current work I spent some time in Amsterdam in a short term exchange program from august to november 2005. It was a unique experience and a great opportunity to learn a different culture.

Now I live in São Paulo near the domestic airport. You may find a picture of my house's rooftop here.
