I am a Professor and researcher with a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering (University of Leeds, UK) specializing in tribocorrosion, electrochemistry, and hydrogen production.
Currently, I serve as a Lecturer at UFRPE-UACSA and a permanent faculty member of the PPCEM-UFPB Postgraduate Program. My leadership roles include coordinating the Corrosion Laboratory (LabCorr) and leading the Manufacturing Processes and Corrosion Research Group (ProFCorr). I am also honored to serve as an Ambassador for the National Centre for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) for the 2025–2027 biennium.
My academic work is grounded in real-world industry applications, with past professional experience at Renault Research and Development in Paris and Gerdau Aços Longos in Brazil. This dual perspective informs my research, which is supported by national funding agencies and active international collaborations, particularly with partners in the UK and USA.
My technical expertise includes a wide rangepre of advanced characterization techniques, such as TEM, SEM, XRD (Rietveld), XPS, FTIR, ICP-MS, and Zeta Potential analysis.
