I have a degree in Agronomy from the Federal University of Lavras (Aug / 2007), master's degree in Sanitation, Environment and Water Resources from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (Jul / 2010), and doctorate in Water Resources in Agricultural Systems from the Federal University of Lavras ( Aug / 2013). I have been developing research associated with hydrological simulation, with emphasis on the Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model, in addition, i have been working to identify areas with greater potential for groundwater recharge in the Upper Grande river and Upper Iguazu river regions, through hydrological and land use indicators, with an emphasis on modeling soil losses in these basins. I have been working with the issue of soil and water conservation, the impacts of land use on hydrological conditions and the management of water resources in river basins. I am currently a professor at the Federal University of Uberlândia - Brazil, at the Institute of Geography.
