About Me

I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at California State Polytechnic University - Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona). I earned a B.S. in Computer Science from Pontifical Catholic University of Goias, Brazil (2001), an especialization in Software Quality Assurance and Management from Pontifical Catholic University of Goias, Brazil (2013), a M.S. in Computer Science from Federal University of Goias, Brazil (2013), and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Arizona State University, USA (2020), where I proposed a hacker-centric perspective to empower cyber-defense. After defending my Ph.D. dissertation in April 2020, I joined Cal Poly Pomona in Fall 2020. I have also worked from 2001 until 2010 in my own software factory Marin Solutions, where my team designed custom-built, requirements-oriented, high-performance software solutions for different type of companies.                                                                   
My research focuses on AI for Threat Intelligence (ATI), which develops predictive and adaptive learning models to anticipate emerging threats in adversarial online environments. Detailed descriptions of my research projects and lab activities are available on the Research page.
