Graduated in Industrial Chemistry from the State University of Paraíba and earned a teaching qualification in Chemistry through the Pedagogical Training Program at the University of Vale do Acaraú. I hold both a PhD and a Master's degree in Analytical Chemistry from the Federal University of Paraíba. My expertise spans a variety of advanced techniques, including Near and Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman Spectroscopy, Thermogravimetry, Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP OES), Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS), and UV-Visible Spectroscopy, applied to diverse matrices. In addition to my technical skills, I am proficient in data processing using advanced chemometric tools. I have completed two postdoctoral fellowships: one at the Federal University of Piauí under the Regional Scientific Development Program (DCR-FAPEPI), and another at the University of Coimbra in Portugal, where I specialized in Quantum Calculations, Matrix Isolation, Photochemical Effects, and Quantum Tunneling in Organic Chemistry. I am also an inventor, holding a patent for a "Process for Biodiesel Classification and Instrument for Biodiesel Classification" and “Chemometrics Protocol for Semi-Quantitative Analysis of Mixtures Using Spectral Data or Other Composition Dependent Hyper-Redundant Data”. My teaching experience is extensive and varied, higher education, high school, PROEJA (adult and youth education), and distance learning. Currently, I am an Assistant Researcher at the UC.
