    Profile

    Multimedia artist, engineer and educator.

    I have worked as an integrated circuit designer, programmer and design technologist, but now focus on teaching and learning.

    I am currently an Assistant Professor at Parsons School of Design, where I teach Machine Learning and programming in the Data Visualization program. I am also a researcher associated with USP in Brazil, where I am developing equitable and open source ML tools for art, architecture and urbanism applications.
