1st place in the AE Studio hackathon hosted in Florianópolis. In this challenge 2 friends and I developed Agrodao, a blockchain-based solution targeted at decreasing deforestation and fighting climate change. And now I have an Alexa! haha

This was the 1st ideathon held at the UFSC School of Technology.

Twelve teams from four different universities participated in the competition, which offered over R$2000 in prizes. The competition lasted for just over two days.

The final goal of the ideathon was to develop innovative solutions that could have a positive impact on the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Spending the weekend creating a blockchain-based solution to improve tracking and transparency in supply chain operations for the food industry was awesome.

In addition to the 1st place title, we were awarded R$1000 in cash and approximately R$300 worth of tickets each to attend the International Business Fair 2022.

Here's an article written in the blog of one of the sponsors from the Ideathon highlighting the winner projects: https://www.aquare.la/tecnologia-e-sustentabilidade-os-vencedores-do-pet-challenge-2022/ 

While attending the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), I was awarded the Dean's List certificate twice for achieving an average of 9.0/10 or more in a semester. The Academic Achievement Certificate (Dean's List) is a distinction awarded every semester to undergraduate students who have demonstrated outstanding achievement in their course.
