I am an IT Audit Supervisor at ABN AMRO's Group Audit Department in Brasil. I am mainly focused in auditing the client/server, midrange and networks infrastructure and strategy of the Bank and related companies in Brasil.

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. That's how I came across hydrogenaudio forums in early 2003.

Personal Profile

I was born in São Paulo in July 1975. I've also lived 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 at the local university. During that period my main interests were:

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

After some personal frustrations in the engineering field I received a proposal to join ABN AMRO's Internal Audit Department in 1998 as an intern. This decision brought a great shift in my professional focus and I decided to face engineering more as a hobby from that day forth.

So, I went to learn Economics at another local university and got my degree in 2002, where my main academic interests were:

National and international banking
Keynesian economics
Inflation targeting in emerging market countries
Econometrics
Value at risk
Economic policy and central banks

Recently my interest in digital audio has grown and I started to investigate the subject. Certainly I am not as savvy as most of hydrogenaudio regulars, but I am learning and hope I may add some value to this community.

Educational Background and Titles

BE in Electrical Engineering from the Polythecnic School at the University of São Paulo
Post Graduate degree in Economics, Finance and Banking Administration from Fundação Getúlio Vargas
