Biography

I have been teaching Mathematics at Universities since 1993. I did a PhD in Algebra at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. I have done research about semigroups and automata, namely automatic semigroups and subsemigroups of the bicyclic monoid. Now I dedicate myself more to the development of software and digital contents for teaching, mainly with C#, SQL and Javascript. I am also a Yoga and Acroyoga teacher and I integrate these skills with my work at the University.
