Passionate about people and technology, I hope to have an impact in the world by providing people with the open tools they need to act, collaborate and learn. Taking inspiration from Arduino and Raspberry Pi, I am pushing forward together with my friend and partner in crime Jean Alinei open-source fast prototyping technology in the field of energy systems.

We hope that stakeholders, educators and students all over the globe can adopt OwnTech in in their workflow all over the world. And take it with them to the industry in due time.

My alma mater is the Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil, where I obtained my electrical engineering degree in 2009. I have completed my PhD at the University of Grenoble, France in 2013. I have started my carreer as an Associate Professor at the Institute of Technology of the University of Toulouse and 2014, and have been pushing open-hardware power electronics technology into our curriculum ever since.
